Female entrepreneurs ready to shine in the e-commerce sector will come together on Tuesday, March 5th, at the "E-Commerce Carnival" hosted by the Sheraton Istanbul Ataköy Hotel. The event, organized in collaboration with the Turkey Aid Lovers Association Bakırköy Branch and AHORAS, aims to allow female entrepreneurs to share their experiences, establish collaborations, and strengthen women's entrepreneurship by meeting with industry leaders.

Providing information about the E-Commerce Carnival, AHORAS CEO Serkan Koçak stated that in a period where more than 2 billion people worldwide shop online, they are trying to ensure that female entrepreneurs get a larger share of this big pie. He said, "The biggest reasons for the failure of new entrepreneurs are lack of financial literacy and marketing. We have structured our event around 4 main themes: 'sharing, synergy, education, and investment.' With this event, we aim to show prospective female entrepreneurs in Turkey and globally that this business is not actually difficult and can be done without large investments."
