Hamle Innovation Competition
Organized annually by HT-TTM since 2015, it is carried out to introduce entrepreneur candidates and their teams with early-stage innovative business ideas to the entrepreneurship ecosystem. With the jury evaluation made after the training and mentorships given to the business ideas that passed the pre-selection, the competitors are provided with cash awards, as well as taking part in the Pre-Incubation and Incubation areas of Hacettepe Technopark.

BIGG Initiative Move Accelerator Program
The Individual Young Entrepreneurship (BiGG) program was designed by TUBİTAK to enable entrepreneurs to transform their technology and innovation-oriented business ideas into enterprises with high added value, and to support their activities from the idea stage to the market with a 200,000 TL grant. Since 2015, applications can be made to the program with organizations authorized by TUBITAK. For this purpose, TUBITAK has chosen HT-TTM as the Implementing Agency to collect applications, provide training and mentoring support to entrepreneur candidates, and identify qualified and value-creating business ideas. HT-TTM Entrepreneurship Office carries out its activities under the brand of BIGG Girişim Hamlesi.
