Nurten Öztürk, recognized on international platforms, won two awards at the Stevies IBA.

Nurten Öztürk, a founding member of the OPET Board of Directors, has been recognized not only in Turkey but also on international platforms for her work in social responsibility and sustainability.

The 2024 International Business Awards (IBA) ceremony took place on October 11 at the Intercontinental Hotel in Istanbul. Nurten Öztürk, the leader of the “OPET Conscious Community Projects,” which have each become a brand in their field, expressed her honor and pride in receiving the award at the ceremony, stating:

“First and foremost, I believe that this country and its people deserve the best. As an individual, I feel a duty and responsibility to my country and to those who value us. By considering the needs of our country, we serve as an example to society with our stable social responsibility projects, creating impact and inspiring courage. Although we are a commercial enterprise, we have never thought commercially in any of our undertakings. All the social responsibility projects we have signed are aimed at embracing society, solving needs, and making people’s lives easier, focusing on the past, present, and future, and we have reached over 20 million people to date. I would like to thank the valuable jury members who recognized my efforts and honored me with this award.”
