SUMMARY
The “eTransformation Turkey Project” that was included in the 58th and 59th Government Urgent Action Plan was launched with the aim of bringing individual, fragmented ICT research under a single umbrella project so as to locate cross-sector synergies and accelerate research processes.
The “Turkey’s Information Society Transformation Policy” document, which was prepared with the participation of public and private stakeholders, was adopted by the e-Transformation Turkey Executive Board. The document states that that the project’s goal is to transform Turkey into “a country that has become a focal point in the production of science and technology, that uses information and technology as an effective tool, that produces more value with information-based decision-making processes and that is successful in global competition, with a high level of welfare”.
