In 2013, within the scope of TÜBİTAK 1513 support, the “National Technology Transfer Network” was established with the participation of representatives from 10 universities that are USIMP members. This platform was designed to enable Technology Transfer Office managers and experts to share experiences and develop joint solutions to common challenges.
In 2016, a “National Mentor Network” initiative was launched with the contribution of six mentoring practitioner organizations, aiming to foster collective intelligence for improving the quality of mentoring services, and workshops were organized within this scope.
With the goal of enhancing and expanding the quality of business mentoring services provided to all types of enterprises in Türkiye, the National Business Mentoring Initiative was formed in 2017, and the participants signed a Joint Declaration expressing their intention to share knowledge, experience, and expertise.
Since 2016, the coordination of the National Mentor Network has been carried out through the Technology Transfer Professionals (TTP) Association.
Within the scope of national network-building activities, various events have been organized over the years in line with emerging needs.
