Since October 2022, Würth Elektronik eiSos has been cooperating in Turkey with the non-profit organization, Cube Incubation, in Istanbul's Teknopark, where it is helping to equip an electronics laboratory for the incubation center. On May 5 customers, business partners, and members of the press were able to see for themselves on site what the new laboratory can do, and how Würth Elektronik is making innovations possible in Istanbul.
As one of the leading manufacturers of electronic and electromechanical components, Würth Elektronik eiSos is an international partner for developers and innovative start-ups. This includes turning ideas into reality in Turkey, says Alexander Gerfer, CTO Würth Elektronik eiSos. "There is a very agile start-up scene in Istanbul, which finds the best conditions here in the incubation center. We are pleased to be able to make our contribution to this."
"If you want to promote the best, you've come to the right place," confirms Ahmet Çak?r, Managing Director of Würth Elektronik eiSos in Turkey. "With our modern laboratory equipment, ideas become innovations."
Würth Elektronik equips the laboratory with a wide range of special devices and instruments for testing and developing electronic components, circuits, and systems. These include Würth Elektronik design kits, soldering stations, and microscopes for prototype development. Along with the equipment support, Würth Elektronik also provides technical training and mentoring support at certain periods.
After the tour under the expert guidance of Mr. Gerfer and Mr. Çak?r, everyone agreed that: the new electronics lab creates excellent working conditions.
