Tunç
Fındık
Professional Mountaineer, Instructor
Biography
“All mountains are beautiful and spellbinding. Whether snowy or rocky, each one is beautiful in its own way.” Tunç Fındık sees success as safely climbing beautiful mountains.
You have to know how to climb up as well as down
Tunç Fındık says coming back safe and sound from a climb is the definition of success in mountaineering. “It is important to reach the summit in mountain climbing. It is like the full stop at the end of the sentence, but it is not the most important thing. For a successful climb, the descent is as important as the ascent.” For ascents that present numerous obstacles, you need a specific plan, a target, leadership, teamwork, logistics, motivation and the successful management of all these elements in order to solve problems and keep going. Fındık has climbed nine of the world’s 14 mountains with an altitude of more than 8000 meters as part of the project 14×8000. There are 13 people (12 living) in the world to have completed this series. Tunç Fındık aims to complete the series which represents a sort of world record in high altitude mountaineering.

Sinan
Ülgen
Risk Management Specialist, Chairman, EDAM (Centre for Economic and Foreign Policy Studies), Founding Member, Istanbul Economics Consultancy Firm
Biography
“Once the economic crisis is over, capitalism will be preserved as the main system. But there will be a transition to a form of capitalism where the former excesses will be reined in.”
A form of capitalism with the old excesses reined in
Sinan Ülgen is an experienced risk management specialist who has been intimately involved in deciding Turkey’s position at the negotiations surrounding the most heated episodes of its EU adventure. According to Ülgen, world leaders are obliged to guarantee their citizens that a crisis similar to the present one will not re-emerge in thee to five years’ time. For some time now, they have been spending their citizens’ money, all the while asking them to endure the hardships. Providing such a guarantee will ultimately require a re-formulation of the international system. This design will have to set a balance between efficiency and consistency, between risk and return differently. With this in mind, it might be possible that this crisis will represent a turning point on the part of the capitalist system as well. Capitalism will be maintained as the main system, but there will be a transition to a form of capitalism in which the excesses are reined in. Ülgen offers consultancy on the reforms Turkey is going to implement in the upcoming period as part of its accession process to the EU, the transformations expected in critical sectors such as banking and energy, and the action steps Turkey should take to attract a higher level of investment.
Who is Sinan Ülgen?
After working as a technical consultant to Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality and completing his military service with the Turkish General Staff, he completed a graduate degree on European Union studies in 1990 at the College of Europe in Bruges, Belgium. He joined the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs and worked for two years at the United Nations Department in Ankara. From 1992 until 1996, he served on the Turkish Permanent Delegation to the EU in Brussels, where he was involved in deciding Turkey’s position in negotiations regarding the Customs Union. In 1996, he was posted to the Turkish Embassy in Tripoli.

- Love and Hate Marketing
Lüksün tanımı değişiyor peki ya kendisi?
Alışılagelen lüksün tanımı değişiyor. Deneyim ve duygusal etkileşim ise, en katı kurallara sahip köklü markaların kilit noktasına dönüşmüş durumda. Dijital iletişimde yenilikçi olup, mağaza içi deneyimde öncü adımlar atan markalar yerini koruyor. Lüks tüketicisi çok üstün kalite malzeme ve essiz tasarım kadar samimi bir içerik iletişimi de arıyor.
- Dijital çağda lüks perakendecilik
Günümüzde dijitalleşme her yere nüfuz etti. Moda dünyası da bundan nasibini aldı. Tüketim artık dijital kanallar aracılığıyla gerçekleştiriliyor. Eğer bu kanallar aracılığıyla da müşteriye dokunmazsanız yok olup gidersiniz.
- Stil sahibi doğamayız ama olabiliriz
Audrey Hepburn ve Grace Kelly gibi bir ikonu kopyalayarak ya da stil danışmanlarıyla çalışıp başkasının hayal gücünün, zekasının ve zevkinin yansıması olan parçaları üzerinde taşıyarak stil sahibi olunur mu? Yoksa stil sahibi olmak kişinin genetik kodlarında mı vardır?
- Gardıropta “Top Ten”
Yıllar değişse de gardırobun değişmeyen ikonik parçaları neler olmalı? Hangi parçalarla zamansız bir şıklık yaşamanız mümkün.
- Sanat ve lüks: Markaların bitmeyen aşkı
Lüks markaların sanatçılarla olan iş birlikleri lüks tüketicisinin her zaman çok olumlu cevap verdiği bir formül. Fakat çok sık tekrarlandığı zaman, ticari algıya neden olup, müşteri gözünde sorgulanan bir alan olmaya da açık.
- Sadeleşme/100 ürünle yaşanır mı?
Sahip olduklarımızın bizi esir almasını daha çok dile getirdiğimiz dönemde, azalarak çoğalmak konusu üzerine düşünceler tartışmaya çok açık.
- İşte bunlar hep lüks…
Yüzyılı aşan hatta bazıları neredeyse 2 asra yaklaşan markaların da dünyanın dört bir yanındaki taleplere cevap vermek için üretim ağlarını geliştirmesi aynı ürüne gereğinden fazla kişinin sahip olabilme fırsatını doğurdu.
- Çağdaş Moda – Kavramsal Moda
Moda artık sadece tasarım ve kumaştan ibaret değil. Tüm bunların yerine çağdaş sanatta olduğu gibi fikir aldı.
- Marka olmak ya da olmamak
Marka olunmaz doğulur diyebiliriz. Bir markanın sadece ürünlerinin kalitesi ve popülaritesi o markanın değerini maalesef belirleyemiyor. Günü doğru değerlendiren ve geleceğe yatıran markalar dışındakilerin pek şansı olmayan bir dönemdeyiz.
- Doğru parçalara yatırım (Minimum parça maksimum şıklık)
Eskilerin bir sözü vardır: Nicelik değil, nitelik önemlidir. İngilizler de “Ucuz ürün alacak kadar zengin değilim”, derler. Bu sözler boşuna söylenmiş değil. Doğru ve sürdürülebilir bir gardırop kendinize yapacağınız en iyi yatırımlardan biri. Ve bunu çok az parçayla yapmak mümkün.
