espite the global imbalances and the regional turmoil, the Turkish
economy sustains its strong position on the path of sustainable
growth. As for Turkey’s exporters, they wish to relentlessly invest,
manufacture and export.
Carrying out sizeable technology investments in various industries, Kon-
ya-based companies managed to diversify their export markets. Rea-
lizing a fascinating growth in the past decade, the business people of
Konya are now gearing up themselves to produce the market trends by
investing in brand development. Once known as a grain warehouse for
the entire country, Konya now boasts a remarkably developing industrial
base.
There is a saying nothing is achieved unless it is dreamt first. Innovation
can not be learned but it can be developed to shine, inspiration, moti-
vation, spirit, hope, position thinking, empathy, intuition. Scientists disco-
vered the emotional intelligence, and it is said that one sees best with a
heart. Competitiveness is the sine qua non of success anywhere. Yet to
become competitive, firms must be able to measure and evaluate their
performance. As always, the rule of the game is to know where your
competition is and what he is doing. Actually, the world has become a
global village and business knows no international boundaries. Howe-
ver, the rule of the game is dynamic competitiveness. The concept of
competition has been undergoing a permanent change. As known,
the Turkish exporters operating in Konya are not isolated from these re-
alities. They are fully conscious of the fact that they have to cope with
the dynamically changing conditions; and they strive to do so in order to
survive in the world markets.
From the stand point of exporters, competition is a complex series of
moves and countermoves on a global landscape like a chess play.
Exporters operating in Konya are no exception. They are particularly
involved in identifying, evaluating and selecting target markets by trying
to answer global questions.
The considerably rich background of the province has been enough to
make her regarded as an open-air museum, with numerous historical
sites and a large number of works of art. As it was the case in the past,
the province takes pride in contributing to the bright future of Turkey.
This special supplement on Konya aims at conveying the messages of
the business people operating in Konya. We wish them and their trading
partners success and lucrative trade.
