Founding Purpose

A transformation grounded in the circular economy

TAGFORUM is a living network of producers, entrepreneurs, academics and technology companies who come together around the principles of sustainability. Our aim is to lead a circular-economy-based transformation in Türkiye's agriculture and food sectors.

Starting from the Aegean Region and focusing above all on agriculture, food and biotechnology, our goal is to support the sustainable use of every kind of organic resource and waste, to strengthen cooperation between relevant people, institutions and organisations, and to create an innovative production ecosystem based on upcycling.

Our ecosystem consists of companies and stakeholders that support sustainable agriculture, food and soil processing activities, that apply software and upcycling methods, and that complete the sustainable food chain.
