The Second Century Economics Congress, designed as a civil, transparent and fully participatory initiative and organized under the leadership of Izmir Metropolitan Municipality, aims to create the economic policies of the new century of the republic with a common mind.
Five well-established companies sponsor

Preferred by many brands, Sun Tekstil is among the theme sponsors of the Second Century Economics Congress and contributes to the creation of the economic policies of the future.
Arkas, which was born in Izmir and became an international holding, with its deep-rooted 120-year history, provides important and sustainable support to Izmir in the fields of education, sports and the arts, in addition to its significant contributions to Turkey's foreign trade.
Folkart, which is equipped with advanced technology, constructs world-class structures and is deemed worthy of many national and international awards, continues to add value to Izmir and Turkey as one of Izmir's well-established companies.
Türkiye İş Bankası, which was founded in 1924 with the instruction and participation of Atatürk, following the decision to “establish a commercial main bank” unanimously accepted at the İzmir Economics Congress within the framework of the need for a national bank, has been the dynamo of the economic independence of the young Republic since its establishment. It supports the development of the country's economy.
Yaşar Holding, which has led the industrialization process of our country with the sectors and investments it has brought to Turkey, especially the paint, food and beverage sectors; continues to contribute to economic development with its strong companies, and to social development with its investments in education, culture, art and sports.
Expert Meetings started
The Stakeholder Meetings of the Second Century Economics Congress, held between 10 August and 1 December 2022, and which constitute the first phase of the congress, have been completed. Within the scope of Stakeholder Meetings, many sessions were held with the participation of farmers, workers, industrialists, traders and craftsmen's organizations.
Each stakeholder group has compiled the problems in the sector and the related solution proposals into comprehensive conclusion texts as a result of long discussions. Declarations prepared as a result of Farmer, Worker and Industrialist-Merchant-Tradesman Meetings were shared with the public.
After the stakeholder meetings, the second phase, the Expert Meetings, started on 13 January. Expert meetings, inspired by the concepts of harmony with each other, nature, past and future, which form the concept of "circular culture", are organized under four different headings.
The first meeting of experts, “We are satisfied with each other”, was held on January 13 at St. Vukolos Church, and the meeting “We are returning to our nature” was held on January 20 at İzmir Agricultural Development Center (İZTAM) with wide participation. The “We Understand Our Past” meeting will be held on January 25, and the “We See the Future” meeting will be held on February 4th.
