The Entrepreneurship and Incubation Unit, operating under the Turkish-German University Technology Transfer Application and Research Center (TTC), aims to support the transformation of academic knowledge and research outputs into practice through entrepreneurial ideas.

The unit contributes to the structuring of innovative business ideas emerging within the university ecosystem from their early stages, guiding on the entrepreneurial journey from idea to product, and from product to market. In this process, it is essential to address the technical, business development, and strategic needs of entrepreneurs with a holistic approach. Within this scope, the Entrepreneurship and Incubation Unit aims to evaluate and mature entrepreneurial ideas developed by academics, students, and researchers, while offering support in mentoring, business model development, and roadmap creation. Furthermore, it ensures that startups in the incubation process benefit effectively from the university's research infrastructure and academic expertise, strengthens the connections of these ventures with technoparks, industry, and the investment ecosystem, and provides guidance and consultancy services to increase the commercialization potential of innovation-oriented projects.
