Market Opportunities
Last published date:

GoT-supported major infrastructure projects have long presented opportunities for U.S. firms. Even with several previously slated infrastructure projects put on hold, opportunities remain for U.S. products and services in both the government and consumer spheres. The civilian aerospace sector has grown significantly in the last fifteen years. Project opportunities are chiefly in maintenance and repair operation (MRO) facilities, air traffic control systems, and commercial space projects. In the energy sector, Türkiye has drastically increased its imports of LNG to diversify its energy suppliers. Offshore oil and gas exploration will continue in the Mediterranean Sea and the Black Sea. The same impulse to diversify Türkiye’s energy supply has resulted in an uptick of license tenders for renewable energy projects, specifically solar, wind, and geothermal. 
Both the public and private sectors continue to invest substantially in advanced manufacturing, information and communication technologies, and healthcare, among other sectors. The GoT will be releasing a handful of 5G-related tenders in 2024, and opportunity exists for U.S. firms to partner with Turkish firms on the country’s rollout of this cutting-edge telecommunications technology.
Türkiye’s previous movement toward membership in the European Union — which the GoT is working to reinvigorate — led to the market’s adoption of many European business regulations and standards, ultimately making it easier to sell products and conduct business in Türkiye than in previous years. Despite economic uncertainty, especially in regard to regulatory risks, including the new disinformation and e-commerce laws, sanctions, and exports controls, Türkiye still has numerous opportunities for U.S. products and services, and CS Türkiye is ready to assist.

Global Business Navigator Chatbot Beta

Welcome to the Global Business Navigator, an artificial intelligence (AI) Chatbot from the International Trade Administration (ITA). This tool, currently in beta version testing, is designed to provide general information on the exporting process and the resources available to assist new and experienced U.S. exporters. The Chatbot, developed using Microsoft’s Azure AI services, is trained on ITA’s export-related content and aims to quickly get users the information they need. The Chatbot is intended to make the benefits of exporting more accessible by understanding non-expert language, idiomatic expressions, and foreign languages.

Limitations

As a beta product, the Chatbot is currently being tested and its responses may occasionally produce inaccurate or incomplete information. The Chatbot is trained to decline out of scope or inappropriate requests. The Chatbot’s knowledge is limited to the public information on the Export Solutions web pages of Trade.gov, which covers a wide range of topics on exporting. While it cannot provide responses specific to a company’s product or a specific foreign market, its reference pages will guide you to other relevant government resources and market research. Always double-check the Chatbot’s responses using the provided references or by visiting the Export Solutions web pages on Trade.gov. Do not use its responses as legal or professional advice. Inaccurate advice from the Chatbot would not be a defense to violating any export rules or regulations.

Privacy

The Chatbot does not collect information about users and does not use the contents of users’ chat history to learn new information. All feedback is anonymous. Please do not enter personally identifiable information (PII), sensitive, or proprietary information into the Chatbot. Your conversations will not be connected to other interactions or accounts with ITA. Conversations with the Chatbot may be reviewed to help ITA improve the tool and address harmful, illegal, or otherwise inappropriate questions.

Translation

The Chatbot supports a wide range of languages. Because the Chatbot is trained in English and responses are translated, you should verify the translation. For example, the Chatbot may have difficulty with acronyms, abbreviations, and nuances in a language other than English.
