Trade shows are today's most effective marketing and collaboration platforms. These events, which are one of the most powerful ways for companies to introduce their products, brands, and innovations to the world, are also the birthplace of knowledge sharing, new investments, and strategic partnerships. In modern economies, trade fairs are at the heart of innovation and global competition, as well as trade.

Bursa, the driving force of the Turkish economy, is one of Turkey's most dynamic cities with its production power, entrepreneurial spirit, and export capacity. Located at the center of a vast hinterland home to approximately 2 billion people, just a three-hour flight away, Bursa is not only a regional center of attraction but also a unique hub for global sectoral gatherings. This strategic advantage positions our city as a player shaping not only today's but also the future's economies.

KFA Fair Organization, a subsidiary of BTSO, serves as a strong solution partner for our business community. KFA Fair Organization has successfully organized Bursa-based events such as Junioshow in the baby and children's wear category, TurkishFashionFabrics – TFF in textiles, Bursa Food Point in the food sector, and Ricing City in the construction and real estate sectors. Furthermore, KFA Fair Organization's experience has also led to the implementation of major global events such as HOMETEX, the world's largest block marble fair, the largest gathering of the home textile sector, and IDEF, one of the world's three largest defense industry fairs. This expertise makes Bursa a city with a voice in the future of fairs.

As the Bursa Chamber of Commerce and Industry, we continue our investments to ensure the continued development of BFM and its service at international standards. Our goal is to make BFM a globally recognized and preferred exhibition and congress center.

The Bursa Fair Center, which we will operate as of 2025, hosts events at international standards thanks to the modernization efforts we have implemented. Each fair held at this center showcases our sectors to the world and creates new opportunities for entrepreneurs and investors.

The steps we're taking in this context are bringing Bursa's production power and vision to the world, while also making a significant contribution to our country's development journey. We are moving forward together with the business community and all our stakeholders with the belief that "If Bursa Grows, Turkey Grows." We aim to transform our Bursa Fair Center from a venue for ordinary events into a hub where global trade, technological transformation, and innovative ideas converge. With our determination and shared vision, we will continue to transform our city into a global meeting point shaping the future of fairs.
