Today, we have reached a significant milestone in our entrepreneurial journey with our project, SAMUTE. Within the scope of the BIGG3INN acceleration program, which includes Sabancı University’s SuCool Incubation Center, we have officially completed our application to the TÜBİTAK 1812 – Investment-Based Entrepreneurship Support Program. This step marks the first official stage in the transformation of SAMUTE from a research and development-focused idea into a technology startup with investment and commercialization potential.
The TÜBİTAK 1812 program is an important R&D entrepreneurship model that aims to strengthen the incorporation process of innovative ideas with investment-based support. In this context, SAMUTE has been included in the application process to be evaluated as a technology platform offering AI-supported interaction solutions. With the acceleration support of Bigg3, the academic guidance of Sabancı University, and the mentorship contributions from the entrepreneurship ecosystem, our project’s technical infrastructure and commercialization potential have been presented strongly.
During the application process, we conducted comprehensive preparations in areas such as market analysis, customer segmentation, technology validation studies, and a long-term business model. Thanks to these efforts, SAMUTE has been positioned not just as a product idea, but as a scalable technology solution.
In the upcoming evaluation stages to be conducted by TÜBİTAK, we aim to demonstrate our project’s technical competence, level of innovation, and potential contribution to the national economy in the most powerful way. This application is a significant beginning for the future vision of the SAMUTE brand.
