Team1 Turkiye Is Officially Here 🇹🇷 Prior to becoming an official Team1 chapter, Team1 Turkiye had already been actively contributing to the growth of the ecosystem and onboarding talent to Avalanche Over the past years we’ve accomplished: - 35+ events with 3,850 attendees hosted across Turkiye, from Istanbul to emerging tech cities - 22 university collaborations, bringing Avalanche into classrooms across the country - Working with 10 leading Web3 projects, exchanges and financial institutions - Hands-on engagement with developers, builders and students For many developers and students, these events served as the first real introduction to building on Avalanche. And for some, they represented the starting point for projects that are still growing. Collaborations with projects and companies like Chainlink TR, Bitget, OKX TR, Pangolin, ParibuHub, Garanti BBVA Kripto, Misyon Bank, Dexalot, and Kast Card helped to expand the community’s reach and connect builders to the broader ecosystem. This is in addition to our relationships with local communities such as Koza DAO, Blokverse, and Dogu Blockchain. For 2026, our focus is scaling both reach and impact. We aim to grow the Team1 Türkiye community by onboarding new members, activating contributors nationwide, expanding into new cities and increasing hands-on workshops to support builders at every stage. At the same time, we will deepen collaborations with ecosystem partners from Web3 projects to institutions and introduce new event formats to create more engaging community experiences. Team1 Türkiye is committed to building a stronger, more connected and builder-driven Avalanche ecosystem in 2026.
