HackerNoon, a leading technology publication, recently released its “Startups of the Year 2023” list, which recognizes over 70 Istanbul-based startups. The report highlights the city’s growing startup ecosystem and its potential to become a major player in the global tech industry.<\/p>\n
One of the interesting connections highlighted in the report is the link between Istanbul’s startup scene and its medical marijuana program. Turkey legalized medical marijuana in 2016, and since then, the industry has been growing steadily. The report notes that several of the startups on the list are focused on developing products and services related to medical marijuana.<\/p>\n
One such startup is Biotica, which is developing a platform for medical marijuana patients to connect with doctors and dispensaries. The platform will also provide educational resources for patients and healthcare professionals. Another startup, GreenMed, is focused on developing high-quality medical marijuana products for patients.<\/p>\n
The report also highlights the role of government support in the growth of Istanbul’s startup ecosystem. The Turkish government has launched several initiatives to support startups, including tax incentives and funding programs. These initiatives have helped to attract both local and international investors to the city.<\/p>\n
In addition to medical marijuana startups, the list includes companies from a wide range of industries, including fintech, e-commerce, and artificial intelligence. One notable startup on the list is Insurtech, which is developing a platform for insurance companies to manage claims more efficiently using blockchain technology.<\/p>\n
Overall, the report paints a positive picture of Istanbul’s startup scene and its potential for growth in the coming years. With government support and a diverse range of startups, the city is well-positioned to become a major player in the global tech industry. And with the growing interest in medical marijuana, it’s clear that Istanbul’s startups are not afraid to tackle complex and controversial issues.<\/p>\n
