Afterwards, Board of Directors Member Ünsal Sözbir stated that while the 2023-2025 MÜSİAD Strategy Plan focuses on Türkiye's goals for the future, on the other hand it will also fulfil its responsibilities towards social development. Within the scope of social responsibility, the guests who came to Karaman that same evening toured the city, listened to the problems of the tradesmen and did shopping. In addition, they paid the debts of those in need by purchasing from the tradesmen the ledgers of the Zimem Ledger practice, in other words the credit ledger, an ancient Ottoman tradition that MÜSİAD keeps alive.
On the last day of the General Administrative Board, the MÜSİAD Vice Presidents made detailed presentations to the members about the two-year activities of the coming period that they had prepared in line with the 2023-2025 MÜSİAD Strategic Plan.

The “Century of Türkiye” vision put forward by our government will be one of our most important motivations on the path to bringing out our country's potential. In the hundredth year of our Republic, a national economy growing with domestic and national technologies will surge forward with the strength and support of Anatolian wisdom. With great responsibility and sensitivity, we will continue to work with our ever-present enthusiasm and determination on the path to realizing our ideal of a strong Türkiye. MÜSİAD has come to this day with faith, with love for the cause and with patience. God willing, we will shape the future together as well.”
MÜSİAD will continue to support our country's economic growth and development
