Welcome to Turkey, one of the world's top 10 Incentive destinations of all time!
ordinary meeting of the general assembly

Welcome to Turkey Chapter!

SITE Turkey Chapter is one of the first countries that has hosted the SITE Global Conference (previously known as SITE University) in 1996 in Istanbul.

When the Turkish Ministry of Tourism decided not to attend IBTM in the 90s, SITE Turkey Chapter shouldered the responsibility of representing Turkey and continued to do so, organizing glamorous and memorable events in Geneva IBTM for years. SITE Turkey Chapter has always worked for the progress of Incentive Tourism in Turkey and continues to do so with its proactive, embracing attitude to be the voice of the Incentive Industry. 

Stronger together!
