İnci Holding’s entrepreneurial journey🛣️

With over 71 years of entrepreneurship history and having inspired many companies throughout this journey, İnci Holding’s integration with the entrepreneurship ecosystem dates back to its foundational roots. Initially founded by Cevdet İnci, an entrepreneur at heart, İnci Holding and its companies flourished through its global partnerships and innovative approach. Vinci VC was established in 2018, with İnci Holding as its strategic investor, and Vinci VC, initially focused its efforts on strengthening the collaboration of portfolio companies within the ecosystem and their respective industries. The impact generated by the solutions offered by the portfolio companies to industrial firms garnered significant attention.

The journey to connect our group enterprises with technology firms began around three years ago with the Platform Project. Fast forward to December 2022, İnci Holding made a significant stride in nurturing innovation by launching an open innovation platform named ‘İnci Radar.’ This platform stands as a prominent illustration of collaborative efforts to unite technology-driven entrepreneurs with the extensive network of professionals affiliated with İnci Holding. İnci Radar has created an ecosystem where entrepreneurs can seize growth opportunities for their companies while industry players can solve their challenges.

To promote mutual synergy, technology companies specializing in areas aligned with İnci Holding’s strategic focus, such as energy storage, Industry 4.0, automotive, supply chain logistics, and industrial sustainability, are encouraged to apply to İnci Radar. The program is designed to offer growth-oriented support in three key areas: networking, mentorship, consultancy, and direct investment prospects.

Startups and scaleups accepted into the program gain access to diverse stakeholders within İnci Holding and its extensive network. This includes industrial enterprises, civil society organizations, public institutions, investors, and mentors. Additionally, these companies receive valuable assistance in matchmaking and consultancy support. If the solution proposed by the technology company addresses the business challenges faced by İnci Holding Group companies and suppliers, a Market Fit Test can also be carried out. Furthermore, entrepreneurs within İnci Radar have the opportunity to directly engage with Vinci Venture Capital and present their companies for investment opportunities.
