Be the Brand She Believes In.

We invite visionary companies to ignite their changemaker potential and take action for collective impact.

TurkishWIN Corporate Membership is more than sponsorship—it’s a shared commitment to building inclusive workplaces and accelerating gender equality in Türkiye. We work with you and your volunteers,side by side, story by story, system by system,to bring your DEI goals and our vision to life across the workplace, marketplace, and community.

We start by getting to know your team, your culture, and your ambitions. Then, together, we co-create a 12-month engagement plan aligned with our five core actions: Advocacy, Mentoring, Story Harvesting, Co-Creation, and Investing. Many of our partners adopt multi-year investment plans because real change takes time.

TurkishWIN offers a trusted, values-aligned circle where bold companies thrive through meaningful connection and shared action:

? W — Welcoming authentic connection: We create space for real relationships, built on shared stories and lived experiences.
? I — Igniting collective action: We move from intention to outcome by uniting women and allies as a force for good.
? N — Nurturing legacy-building: We open doors for the next generation and multiply your impact beyond individual success.

Let’s build what’s next, together.

✅ Receive mentorship, training, and access to a powerful leadership community
✅ Build a track record of real impact—while growing personally and professionally
