http://demosfuar.com.tr/ website on which there is information of Trade Fair coming in Turkey i found it
very interesting and contacted them and luckily got space there and participated in that.

demands.

or doctors but also lawyers, engineers and
managers.

colleague, greet him or her by first name,
and then add “bey” (pronounced like
“bay”) for men and “hanim”
(pronounced “ha- num”) for women.

 Building relationships is vital to
any successful endeavor.
 Turks like to do business with
people they know.
 Relationships are often best
solidified over meals.
 Expect small talk at the beginning
of any meeting as it gives your
Turkish colleagues a chance to get to
know you.
 Often a first meeting will be spent
simply allowing you and your
Turkish colleagues to get to
know one another.
 Much of Turkey is Muslim and
Islam dictates five prayer times each
day.
 It is important that you are aware of
these prayer times to best
schedule your meetings around them.
 If you go out to a restaurant with a
Turkish colleague remember that
the host always pays the bill.
 Turks will not split bills.
 You will be refused if you offer to
pay. To return the gesture, offer to host
your Turkish colleague at another time.
 Dress conservatively always.
 Men and women should wear suits.
 In the summer, you can avoid wearing a
jacket and tie as the weather tends to be far
too hot and humid.
 Outside of large cities and especially in
Eastern Turkey, be sure to dress even more
conservatively.
 Women should cover their arms and
legs and men should wear long pants.
