SIAD PLATFORM
SIAD (Industrialists' and Businessmen's Association) is a regionally defined voluntary business model whose membership is open to all businessmen and industrialists working in that region. SIADs have emerged in a bid to play a leading role in formulating policy recommendations on business affairs and to strengthen civil society in the country. SIAD Platform is composed of 48 SIADs, which operate in national, regional and local levels. These organizations represent their regional private sector and develop projects for improving social and economic conditions. They are responsible for reporting on regional economic activities, creating close relations with universities to develop socio-economic policies, and conveying the problems of their region to the government bodies. Since 1997, TUSIAD supports SIADs all over Turkey to promote regional development. The Platform's bodies are Executive Committee, Council of Presidents and the Summit. The Platform has a commission that works on managing regional development projects with Turkish Development Bank.
