To ignite BODRUM’S ECONOMY, create a vibrant, young (non-seasonal) sustainable startup eco-system on the Bodrum peninsula, attracting startups, investors, mentors and building a co-working, collaborative and co-operating local community. To implement this vision, we developed a series of events including a Bodrum ThinkTank dedicated to creating solutions for Bodrum’s problems of today and to predict and prevent future challenges.
You and your team are invited to create new ideas and solutions for Bodrum during a 3 day workshop (called Ideathon) on April 20-22 guided by investors, mentors and entrepreneurs. First prize is a one week all inclusive stay, second and third prize is one long weekend of your choice at one of Bodrum’s most exclusive hotels. The event includes 3 nights of accommodation and food as well as transfers from the Milas/Bodrum airport/bus station. Please go ahead and register for the Ideathon-Start-in Bodrum event before 12th April 2018 and bring your bright ideas and entrepreneurial spirit to Bodrum.

Mehmet Kocadon mayor of Bodrum and executive sponsor of this event stated during the kickoff that he sees this event as a start for a new ecosystem in Bodrum where Students, Investors, Entrepeneurs and Bodrum existing companies are coming together to solve major challenges Bodrum facing now and in the future. This will be a recurring event and has the potential to become a "little Davos" with a Bodrum ThinkTank to lead this new ideas into Bodrum economy
