“Women Are the Strongest Force of Development”

In her speech at the award ceremony, Atasoy emphasized the place of women’s entrepreneurship in global development, saying: “Societies in which women lead economic life are the fastest developing both socially and economically. Women’s entrepreneurship is no longer just a social issue; it is the strongest driving force of development.”

Sharing important messages for women in areas such as strategic branding, rapid growth, and strengthening international communication networks, Atasoy stated that cooperation between Türkiye and Azerbaijan would grow even further with new projects.

Contribution to Cooperation Between the Two Countries

Atasoy’s prestigious award and ULUSKON’s success at the summit were seen as significant steps contributing to economic and social cooperation between Türkiye and Azerbaijan. International representatives at the summit signaled new initiatives that will enhance economic integration between the two countries. Atasoy’s award in Baku strengthens Türkiye’s global influence in women’s entrepreneurship, while once again affirming ULUSKON’s leading role in international economic cooperation.
