Blockchain-focused public relations consultancy EAK Digital is expanding into the Turkish market with the launch of its first international office and hiring of its Turkish team.
Erhan Korhaliller, founder and CEO of Blockchain PR Agency EAK Digital made the decision to open a Turkish office to help provide international blockchain businesses with access to the Turkish market, while also helping Turkish blockchain businesses to grow, and allowing them to benefit from the agencyโs wealth of experience and strong international network.
The team has recruited Hakki Pehlivan to the Turkish team. Hakki has previously managed large-scale national and international projects and has helped to organize blockchain conferences in Turkey. Hakki will work as the EAK Digital Turkey Country Manager, putting his experience to work immediately.
Gateway
The objective is to make the Istanbul office a gateway to allow international businesses access to the blockchain-friendly country and to enable Turkish businesses to launch themselves onto the world stage. Korhaliller said:
โTurkey is an important market in terms of blockchain enthusiasm and adoption. Opening EAK Digital’s first international office at a place where blockchain is viewed with such optimism was an obvious move to make, and our aim is to provide a trusted gateway for International businesses to enter and invest into Turkey with added confidence. We believe that blockchain businesses who can see the potential of the Turkish market will be handsomely rewarded.โ
EAK Digital will also launch a Turkish-branded YouTube channel, which will follow in the mold of EAK TV, the highly successful YouTube channel EAK TV, which has previously featured interviews with crypto leaders such as Changpeng Zhao, CEO of Binance and Roger Ver, executive chairman of Bitcoin.com.
Turkey – Leading Blockchain Forward
Turkey has a strong relationship with cryptocurrencies, with a recent survey by ING finding the country was playing a huge role in driving the adoption of cryptocurrencies, and its underlying blockchain technology.
A second survey showed 20 percent of the population used or owned cryptocurrency.
