artificial intelligence and even virtual universe concepts,
we now see the impact of high technology and digital
transformation in all components of the chemical industry
worldwide. In the light of these developments, we are
implementing a new project that will host the change
and transformation of our industry. We are preparing to
establish a new generation chemistry ecosystem with the
‘Chemistry Technology Center’, which will add strength
to the power of the Turkish chemical industry and will be
a first for our country.
Thanks to the ‘International Accredited Reference
Laboratory Services’, ‘Digital Library’, ‘Export
Development Center’ and ‘Innovation, Entrepreneurship
and R&D Center’ that we will establish within the
Chemistry Technology Center to be located in the IT
Valley, we will bring together 4 different disciplines in a
single center. The Chemical Technology Center will act as
a technology base that will cross the threshold for our
chemical industry and exports.”
Pelister: “Our sustainability action plan is ready for
the future of chemistry and global success in exports”
Emphasizing that with the implementation of the
Chemical Technology Center project, the chemistry
industry will jump the threshold and a new era will begin
in chemistry exports, Pelister said, “We will open a test,
analysis and certification center equipped with highly
advanced devices, where internationally accredited
analyzes and tests can be performed faster and at less
cost in Turkey. In this way, a source of 12 million dollars
will remain in the country every year. The ‘Innovation,
Entrepreneurship and R&D Center’ that we will establish
within KTM will be a center of attraction for start-ups
focusing on new generation products and projects with
high added value, where they will spend their incubation
period. Within the framework of University-Industry
cooperation, we will bring together our academics and
students around the same table for new discoveries in
chemistry. In our Export Promotion Center department,
we have designed a structure where our exporters and
especially our SMEs can access information and receive
consultancy in many fields from international regulations
to logistics. With the Digital Library, we will transfer
all scientific publications, printed and visual works,
especially the chemistry sector, to digital media. We will
make this unique resource available to our industry and
all our researchers.
In summary; We have generated a sustainability-oriented
action plan that will generate permanent value for our
chemical industry and our exports, which is the golden key
to growth. The establishment of the Turkish Chemistry
Agency will also be one of our priority agendas. In the
coming period, we will continue to work for Turkey and
achieve success together with our exporters within the
scope of this plan.”
KTM içinde kuracağımız ‘İnovasyon, Girişimcilik ve Ar-
Ge Merkezi’ ise yüksek katma değerli yeni nesil ürün ve
projelere yoğunlaşan start-up’ların kuluçka dönemini
geçireceği bir cazibe merkezi olacak. Üniversite-
Sanayi iş birliği çerçevesinde akademisyenlerimizi
ve öğrencilerimizi kimyada yeni buluşlar için aynı
masanın etrafında buluşturacağız. İhracatı Geliştirme
Merkezi bölümümüz ise ihracatçılarımızın ve özellikle
KOBİ’lerimizin, uluslararası regülasyonlardan lojistiğe
kadar pek çok alanda bilgiye erişecekleri, danışmanlık
alacakları bir yapı kurguladık. Dijital Kütüphane ile de
başta kimya sektörü olmak üzere bütün bilimsel yayınları,
basılmış ve görsel eserleri dijital ortama taşıyacağız. Bu
eşsiz kaynağı, sektörümüze ve tüm araştırmacılarımızın
kullanımına açacağız.
Özetle; kimya sektörümüze ve büyümenin altın
anahtarı olan ihracatımız için kalıcı değer oluşturacak,
sürdürülebilirlik odaklı bir eylem planı oluşturduk.
Türkiye Kimya Ajansı’nın kurulması da öncelikli
gündemlerimizden birisi olacak. Önümüzdeki dönemde bu
plan dâhilinde Türkiye için çalışmaya ve ihracatçılarımızla
birlikte başarmaya devam edeceğiz” dedi.
