IP Stars Research is being repeated this year as well. This research, which is the only study based on data compiled from its source about IPs, the locomotive of the Turkish economy, and companies operating in IPs, has been an effective reference source that will reward the performance of companies in IPs.

This year, the research, which will be carried out in cooperation with the Economic Policy Research Foundation of Turkey (TEPAV), has been renewed in scope and content. Applicant companies will be evaluated separately for both the IP where they are located and Turkey in general in terms of domestic sales, exports, employment, women’s employment and R&D expenditures. In addition, the best performing companies will be determined by comparing the values of 2020 and 2021.

Applications to the IP Stars Survey will be made at https://osbyildizlari.osbuk.org and the deadline for application is September 30, 2022.
