Turkey

Grayling’s Turkey operation, based in Istanbul, specialises in four practice areas - corporate and public affairs, public relations, investor relations and social media communications. Since 2005, Grayling Turkey has served multinational and national clients from the technology, media and telecoms sector, financial services; healthcare, energy and consumer sectors. We also have extensive aviation experience and a strong track record in working for broadcasters.

Turkey is a sophisticated and rapidly-developing market and Grayling’s approach recognises that the country has gone through a deep change in terms of its perceived role in the world. Turkey sees itself as a crucial pivot point between Europe and the Middle East, and wants to maintain a balance of relations between those groups as well as a close relationship with Russia and China. For Turkey, globalisation is broader and more nuanced that just deepening US and EU political and business relations; it includes deepening Turkey’s business links to the Middle East. This is reflected in our broader public issues management work for clients and the way we deal with the Turkish media and other opinion formers.

Grayling Turkey has a team of consultants with backgrounds in journalism, government, investor relations, corporate marketing and public affairs. Our team has first class media and other opinion leader relationships and a sophisticated knowledge of the Turkish market. In addition to our core team in Istanbul, we also work with well-known and highly regarded experts in Turkish Government Affairs, who are based in the capital, Ankara, which allows us to execute detailed and high-level government relations programmes which have an impact locally and also operate according to international ethical standards.
