- Representation of FinTech developers, finance institutions and corporates on banking, finance and technology legislation

Well ahead of the curve, TURUNÇ formed its dedicated technology practice in the 1990s. Founding Partner Noyan Turunç was the only lawyer to speak and deliver a paper at the 1st Technology Congress of Turkey in 1998. Continuing the tradition, practice co-head Kerem Turunç serves as a co-chair of the Entrepreneurship Ecosystem Working Group of TÜSİAD.
Thanks to our early commitment to technology and the deep expertise we have built over the years, we have continuously worked on some of the largest and most interesting technology deals in the Turkish market. We always keep up with and advise on technological developments, and have in the recent years developed a significant practice focused on new technologies such as crypto assets, non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and Web3, as well as artificial intelligence.
