Emphasizing the importance of perceptions, investment and Turkish products (…), as cement industry we are protecting our national values and taking them into the future. We’ve witnessed enormous changes in the managerial, social and economic areas for a while, like all the countries of the world. In this environment of transformation and uncertainty, which is even more complicated with the pandemic in which institutions like us have a great responsibility to direct the future.
The main initiatives to be undertaken with a new vision are as follows: “First of all, we are planning a position paper on the city vision. In this document, we’re going to clarify how cities should be in 2050. It will be created with the contribution of participants from different segments, which we consider from different perspectives such as urban planning and socio-economics, and will be a document for our future. The Architecture Awards project will be launched next year. We strive to reward professional architects and university students alike. We are planning to introduce new CSR and digitalization initiatives.”
