sustainability and the environment are
very important to Cirque, we really
mean it,” Fulya adds.
Since joining the company eight years
ago, Fulya has helped transform the
operational procurement team. As she
continues to break the silos and be
a part in ensuring the company’s shows
are staged on time, the head of the
operational department aims to ensure
the solutions – allowing this to happen
– are implemented across the world. “In
regards to technology, we have already
decided what we’re going to use and
we’re working on it. The next step is making
sure the cloud platforms are accessible
all over the world,” states Fulya.
“That’s an extraordinary responsibility
in a magical environment.”
