Frequently asked questions

Who is the primary investor behind Teknogirisim GSYF?

Kuveyt Türk Katılım Bankası is the founding anchor investor, establishing the fund through its asset management subsidiary KT Portföy Yönetimi. Vakıf Katılım Bankası joined as a co-investor at the fund's formation, aligning two of Turkey's Islamic participation banks behind a single venture capital vehicle.

What investment stages does Teknogirisim target?

The fund concentrates on early-stage companies, spanning seed and startup phases — the earliest institutional entry points in the Turkish venture market. There is no public indication of pre-seed or growth-stage activity. The stage focus aligns with TÜBİTAK's mandate to bridge the gap between academic R&D and venture-backed commercialization.

Is Teknogirisim GSYF a Sharia-compliant fund?

While the fund has not published a specific Sharia-compliance policy, its anchor investors — Kuveyt Türk and Vakıf Katılım — are both Islamic participation banks operating under Sharia principles. It is reasonable to expect the fund applies participation-compatible screens to its investments, though no formal fatwa or sharia board oversight has been publicly disclosed.
