Hello All,
We hope that you all are enjoying these chilly fall days.
We want to provide some updates as to what we have been up to and what we will be doing in the coming month.
Yesterday, we have attended BIC Angels Networks 2nd round for start ups. We met with 3 valuable start ups, who are seeking investments. We showed potential interest in 2 of them and we will get together for a detailed one-on-one meeting with the companies next week.

Pollop -
pollop is a social media platform where you can ask any question you want in a survey format using mediums such as photos and videos.
Tarfin -
Tarfin is a fintech product which works as medium between financial institutions and farmers.

We particularly enjoyed listening to Tarfin and Pollop.
Pollop shows a lot of promise as it is a different way of engaging with friends. It stands somewhere between Twitter and SnapChat. As you may all be aware, Turks are engaging social media peeps and are on the top of the list of social media usage. We believe that it is time we export a social media product to Silicon Valley. What do you think?
Tarfin stands more on the B2B lending platform. It aims to solve the high interest rates farmers are being forced to when buying agricultural products. The platform is created by Mehmet Memecan, son of famous cartoonist Salih Memecan.
