İzmir, Ankara & Bursa for Your Next Corporate Event

Discover Fresh Destinations Beyond the Usual

While Istanbul, Bodrum, and Antalya often steal the spotlight in Türkiye’s MICE landscape, there’s a growing demand for alternative destinations that offer excellent infrastructure, authentic experiences, and more flexibility. Enter: İzmir, Ankara, and Bursa—three dynamic cities that are rapidly establishing themselves as top-tier choices for corporate events, conferences, and incentive programs.

Whether you’re seeking a modern coastal city, a capital full of gravitas, or a heritage-rich business center, Divenire ensures your event is flawlessly executed in any of these emerging locations.

İzmir: Aegean Charm with Urban Sophistication

With its cosmopolitan feel and coastal location, İzmir blends business with laid-back elegance. Home to state-of-the-art conference centers, boutique hotels, and a bustling international airport, the city is ideal for hosting regional or international events.

Highlights for corporate planners:

Tepekule Congress Center and seaside resort venues
Easy access via Adnan Menderes Airport and high-speed train connections
Evening events on the Kordon waterfront or private vineyard dinners in nearby Urla
Rich cultural add-ons like Ephesus, Şirince village, and the Agora Open Air Museum

Ankara: The Political & Business Capital

As Türkiye’s capital, Ankara is a hub for governmental, diplomatic, and institutional events. With a modern skyline, excellent transport systems, and a calm, professional atmosphere, it is perfect for:

Government affairs & public sector conferences
Industry-specific symposiums and think tank gatherings
NGO summits and policy-oriented forums

Divenire recommends:

ATO Congresium and Bilkent Hotel & Conference Center
Luxury city hotels with executive meeting suites and spa services
Evening receptions with classical Turkish music or private museum tours (e.g. Museum of Anatolian Civilizations)

Ankara’s neutrality and centrality make it ideal for national and international gatherings that require focus, security, and prestige.

Bursa: Tradition Meets Innovation

Often overlooked, Bursa is a city where Ottoman heritage meets industrial dynamism. It is a strong choice for companies looking for:

Quiet yet impactful meeting environments
Culturally immersive incentive options
Proximity to Istanbul without the hustle

What makes Bursa unique:

Host events in heritage hotels or Ottoman-era mansions
Combine meetings with thermal spa experiences in Çekirge
Incentive excursions to Uludağ (hiking or winter sports depending on the season)
Factory and innovation center visits for business-related programs

With Divenire’s local partnerships, even logistics like ferry transfers from Istanbul or hybrid venue setups in Bursa become smooth and personalized.
