Dr. Ali Taha Koc, CEO of Turkcell

“I am deeply proud to serve a second term on the GSMA Board. Our industry is undergoing a profound transformation, spanning artificial intelligence and autonomous networks, 5G and 6G, and cybersecurity. These are challenges no single operator or country can address alone. The GSMA has a critical role in bringing the industry together to tackle them through collective expertise, common standards and strong collaboration. Through the GSMA, Turkcell contributes directly to shaping the future of our industry. We share our technology capabilities and the solutions we deploy in the field with the global ecosystem, while bringing global knowledge and experience back to Türkiye. This role also carries an important responsibility to strengthen the global representation of both Turkcell and Türkiye. Our goal is to deepen the strategic relationship between Turkcell and the GSMA, which now spans nearly 30 years. Building on Türkiye’s technology capabilities and Turkcell’s experience, we will continue to contribute to the advancement of the industry. I would like to thank the GSMA leadership for once again entrusting me with this important responsibility.”
