About

Team1 Türkiye is the official Türkiye chapter of Team1 (/tags/team1), one of the network's officially recognized regional chapters.

About Team1 Türkiye

The chapter launched after years of community members contributing to Avalanche's growth in Türkiye and onboarding local talent, formalizing that groundwork into an official Team1 chapter.

Products & Initiatives

Team1 Türkiye's approach favours events that feel like local experiences rather than generic meetups — from outdoor gatherings to evening events in Istanbul — aimed at making Avalanche approachable to people encountering it for the first time. Community organizer Hursel Cay has been a driving figure in the chapter's Türkiye activity.

Partnerships

The chapter coordinates with Team1's global network and local community venues and organizers to run its events, following the same community-first model used across Team1's other chapters.
