A joint Azerbaijani-Turkish cooperation meeting for young entrepreneurs was organized by the Small and Medium Business Development Agency (KOBİA) and the Azerbaijan Youth Foundation at the "Baku SMB House."

The event began with the national anthems of Azerbaijan and Turkey, followed by a moment of silence in honor of the martyrs.

Attended by over 90 young entrepreneurs from Azerbaijan and Turkey, along with representatives from youth organizations and relevant government agencies, the event aimed to bolster the role of young entrepreneurs in enhancing Azerbaijani-Turkish relationships and forging new partnerships.

Within the framework of the event, Mr. Orxan Mammadov, the Chairman of KOBİA's Management Board, and Mr. Gadir Khalilov, Executive Director of the Azerbaijan Youth Foundation, highlighted the successful development of Turkish-Azerbaijani relations across various fields, including the economy, trade, and business sectors, which began with the philosophy of the Great Leader, Mr. Heydar Aliyev's "One nation, two states" and has continued under the leadership of the current President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Mr. Ilham Aliyev. They shared ideas on the active participation of young people, especially young entrepreneurs, in this process and the expansion of cooperation among them.

Furthermore, presentations were delivered on the initiatives and projects implemented by KOBİA and the Azerbaijan Youth Foundation, encouraging young entrepreneurs to actively engage in these programs.
