I’m Eda, Managing Partner of TAY ISTANBUL DMC. With more than 20 years in hospitality, I work with international travel advisors and event planners to create memorable journeys, bespoke events and luxury experiences across Türkiye.

As a former professional rower who competed nationally and internationally, I bring the discipline, teamwork and determination of sport into everything I do. I’m also a proud Leo—warm, energetic and wholehearted in my commitment to the people I work with.

Trustability and loyalty are at the heart of the company we have built. For me, these come from keeping our promises, communicating openly and being there when it matters. We take our partners’ confidence personally, knowing they are entrusting us with their guests and their reputation. The lasting relationships we have developed are what I value most in our work.

Together with my team, I combine local knowledge, creativity and personal attention to reveal Türkiye through experiences that feel special to each guest—from Istanbul and Cappadocia to the Aegean coast.

At IMEX Las Vegas, I look forward to meeting like-minded partners, sharing ideas and building relationships that last well beyond the event.
