About the Event
The Information Systems and Technologies Expo is a national and international event hosted by İzmir Katip Çelebi University (İKÇÜ) and organised by Maven Events, Congress and Exhibitions Inc.
İKÇÜ was one of the eight partner universities involved in the Digital Innovation Collaboration Platform project initiated in 2022 under the leadership of the Presidential Digital Transformation Office. This project aimed to strengthen collaborations between academia, public institutions, and industry in the field of digital technologies. Additionally, in the same year, İKÇÜ was selected as one of eight pilot universities for the "Big Data in Higher Education Project" launched by the Council of Higher Education (YÖK), playing a key role in the processes of digital transformation and technology development.
The Expo aims to contribute to Türkiye’s information technology ecosystem by developing projects aligned with the strategies of the Presidential Digital Transformation Office. It highlights the locally developed and national projects of our university, such as the "University Information Management System (ÜBYS)" and the "University Cloud Computing System (ÜBBS)." The event also seeks to foster strong collaborations between public institutions and the private sector to drive innovative solutions in technology and information systems.
Our Expo provides a platform for knowledge sharing in areas such as information management systems, big data, cloud technologies, open-source software development, artificial intelligence, enterprise solutions, and digital transformation. It supports the promotion of locally developed and national products, while also introducing the technologies required by the sector. By bringing together universities, IT firms, and public institutions, the event encourages the formation of strong solution partnerships.
