Mehmet Basaran

Having spent most of my professional life in the fields of internationalization of businesses and development of international trade & investment; I provide tailor-made advisory services to the entrepreneurs and C-Level staff of the companies from all sizes and various sectors.

In mid-2014, I joined the Department for International Trade of the United Kingdom as the inward investment adviser at the British Consulate General in Istanbul. With in-depth understanding of the needs of companies; I provide assistance businesses of all shapes and sizes in order to ease their path into new markets by providing extensive and tailored information and advice. As a part of a team of three, I proactively identify and manage relationships with the decision makers of the local businesses not only to promote the internationalization processes but also to ensure stable international growth. I also build and manage high level relations with government and private sector officials as well as with the representatives of the relevant ministries, business multipliers and non-governmental organizations such as associations, chambers, universities, technology clusters and accelerators.

I identify myself as a passionate internationalization expert, a trusted advisor to entrepreneurs, a highly enthusiastic networker for all levels and as a skilled business development executive.
