Turkcell

Turkcell has committed to increase the proportion of women in their mobile internet customer base and Turkcell Women platform by 2023. This will help in closing the notable mobile internet gender gap in the country. Connected Women field research revealed that a larger proportion of female mobile phone owners in Turkey reported never having used mobile internet – 37% vs. 28% of male phone owners.

Turkcell Bizce is the women platform that supports equal opportunity, personal development and economic engagement for women. The usage of Turkcell Bizce is data free, enabling a better customer experience with new app design.
