Biyografi

Sadi Uzunoğlu, ekonominin karmaşık yapısını basit bir dille halka aktarmasıyla ün yaptı ve para piyasalarını hem teorik hem de birbirinden ilginç yaşanmış örneklerle tarihsel bir perspektiften ele alıyor. Uzunoğlu’nun ekonomi dinletileri keyifle öğretiyor.

Ekonomist Prof. Dr. Sadi Uzunoğlu, Uludağ Üniversitesi İktisat Bölümü’nden mezun oldu. Sadi Uzunoğlu, akademik çalışmalarına 1985 yılında İstanbul Üniversitesi, İktisat Fakültesi’nde Araştırma Görevlisi olarak başladı. Ekim 2001 tarihine kadar aynı üniversitede doçent olarak görevini sürdüren Uzunoğlu, akademik kariyerine İstanbul Ticaret Üniversitesi’nde devam etti. Sadi Uzunoğlu, çalışmalarını 2004 yılından bu yana Trakya Üniversitesi İİBF’de sürdürüyor.

Uzunoğlu, akademisyen ve ekonomist kimliğini kusursuz bir şekilde sentezlemesi sonucunda mikro ve makro ekonomiye dair isabetli öngörülerde bulunuyor. Güçlü bir ekonomik duruş sergilemenin yolunun üretimden geçtiğini kaydeden Uzunoğlu, ancak ve ancak yüksek teknolojiye sahip, katma değeri yüksek ürünler üreterek dışa bağımlılıktan kurtulmanın mümkün olduğunu her fırsatta dile getiriyor.

Dünyanın ekonomik sınavdan geçtiğine işaret eden Sadi Uzunoğlu, “Artık eski alışkanlıklardan kurtulup kendimiz ve dünyamız için daha bilinçli yaşama zamanı” diyor.

Uzunoğlu’nun konuşmalarında da sıklıkla ifade ettiği önemli bir tespitini şöyle özetleyebiliriz; “Sıklıkla yaşanan finansal krizler dikkatleri finansal piyasalar ve işleyişi üzerine yoğunlaştırdı. Bankalar, finansal sistemin en önemli kurumları olarak başı çekerek ön plana çıktı. Artık ekonomi denince akla maalesef, finansal sistem ve bankalar gelmeye başladı. Reel ekonomi ikinci plana itildi. Oysa reel ekonomi olmadan finansal sistemin var olması mümkün değil.”

Uzunoğlu, aktif bir yazar ve çok sayıda kitabı var; Para ve Döviz Piyasaları, Temel Ekonomi, Finans Matematiği Çalışma Kitabı, HP Uygulamalı, Güncel ekonomik Sorunlar: Dünya Ekonomisi, Güncel ekonomik Sorunlar: Global Kriz.

Biography

“Incentive is like drug for the survival of a startup, issuing invoices is what entrepreneurs need. That is to say, large companies should use the products or services of that startup.”

Doğan Taşkent, member of the İndeks Speaker Agency, is one of the most eminent speakers on the topics of entrepreneurship, innovation, competition and startup ecosystem etc. He worked as R&D engineer, expert consultant and training expert during 1998-2005 at the fiber optic network systems division of Lucent Technologies Bell Laboratories (New Jersey). During this period, he undertook the installation of electro-optic network infrastructure of Verizon, BT, Telia, Deutsche Telekom, Global Crossing, Qwest and UPC in different continents. He offered consultancy services to Lucent Worldwide Services in New York on the areas of “Knowledge Management”, “Competency Management” and “Telecommunication Technologies”. Taşkent, who has been working as the company-restructuring consultant for Arkan & Ergin Kurumsal Finansman on the telecommunication, renewable energy and entrepreneurship ecosystem in Turkey since 2006, has played a major role in the birth of several business plan competitions and startup companies.

Doğan Taşkent, who gives us insight into the latest developments in entrepreneurship as a speaker at conferences, states that entrepreneurship also existed in the past but it was “incomplete”. Taşkent suggests that the six pillars of Finance, Marketing, Human Resources, Culture, Law and Support used by all companies worldwide, as described in the Babson College model, are required for the creation of a sustainable ecosystem. Taşkent states that Turkey has demonstrated rapid progress in this area with the increased amount of investments in the Internet, gaming and mobile technologies during the last five years, but he also emphasizes that more effort should go into developing biotechnology, nanotechnology and green technology products.

Who is he?

Having completed his bachelor’s degree at the Electrical Engineering School of Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule (ETH) Zürich in 1993, he joined the master program of Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and then won a scholarship at the Polytechnic Institute of NYU, and he began to conduct researches in the area of electrophysics, focusing in particular on the lasers.

Biography

“The search for a multilateral world is taking place against the background of the global crisis and the threat of chaos, whilst discussions about the end of history and the clash of civilisations are still ongoing. Welcome to a new century.”

Global power shifts and the search for a multilateral balance

After the end of the Cold War, the USA sought to implement unilateral foreign policies appropriate to the unipolar world. However, attempts to establish a new and consistent global balance in terms of policy, military and economy have not been successful. Over the last years, substantial losses and shifts in global power have occurred alongside the substantial effects of the global economic crisis. The uncertainty as to what kind of a balance this loss of power would result in means that chaos theories are of great use. According to Dr. Gürlesel, at the moment the USA is trying to avoid adopting multilateral policies based on realism and to establish a new multilateral balance by undertaking a leading role. Global and regional actors in the multilateral balance, its institutional structure, its rules and, above all, its centre of gravity, in other words its geopolitical area, will take become clearer in the coming era. Dr. Gürlesel says that Turkey will also be affected by the multilateral balance of the new era and Turkey may, for the first time, become a regional actor in the establishment of the new balance. However, it will only be possible to draw on Turkey’s potential as a regional actor by creating a healthy balance between idealism and realism.

Who is Dr. Can Fuat Gürlesel?
