✨ As 2024 wraps up, let’s take a moment to celebrate what we’ve achieved together. This year was about more than goals—it was about transformation, innovation, and building a community that matters. From milestones to challenges, we’ve grown, led, and redefined success, shaping the future together every step of the way. 💫 Here’s to 2025 of bold ideas, big opportunities, and new heights—together with MMA MENA by your side. 🌟 Happy 2025! Melis Ertem Linda Kender Zeynep Albora Melike Kurtcan

🌲Sometimes, the best plans for the future begin away from the noise, in a quiet space filled with big ideas & bold conversations.   On December 25-26, the MMA MEA family came together in a remote haven, not just to reflect on what we’ve done but to reimagine what’s NEXT! We debated, questioned, and celebrated—a raw, honest, and deeply needed reset. What worked? What didn’t? And more importantly, what will make us bolder, smarter, and future-ready in 2025?   This wasn’t just a gathering; it was a commitment. To be better. To do better. To think smarter. To embrace change not as a challenge but as an opportunity. Because the future is up to us to shape it, futureproof it, and leave no room for ordinary.   Here’s to the MMA MEA Team—a group of dreamers and doers who inspire at every turn.  Together, we’re not just planning the future but building it. 🚀Let’s make 2025 the year we dare to be different, think bigger, and move faster. The year we didn’t just watch what’s NEXT!—we made it happen. 🌟   Happy New Year! ☘️ --- 🌲Bazı yolculuklar sessizlikte başlar; büyük fikirlerin, cesur tartışmaların yankılandığı, geleceği yeniden şekillendirme cesaretinin filizlendiği anlarda…   25-26 Aralık tarihlerinde, MMA MEA Ailesi olarak uzak bir köşede buluştuk. Yalnızca geçmiş yılın muhasebesini yapmak için değil, geleceği yeniden hayal etmek için. Sorguladık, tartıştık, kutladık. Ne doğruydu, ne eksikti ve 2025’te daha cesur olmak için, daha akıllıca hareket etmek için, geleceğe daha hazır olmak için neler yapmalıydık? Her konu ince ince ele alındı, kararlar verildi.   Bu sadece bir toplantı değil; bir taahhüttü. 2025’te daha iyisini yapmak, daha akıllıca düşünmek ve daha büyük düşünmek için bir çağrı.    Bu başarıda emeği geçen MMA MEA ailesine gönülden tekrar teşekkürler. Hep birlikte sadece geleceği planlamıyor, onu sıradanlıktan çıkararak inşa ediyoruz. 🚀 Ayse Evin I Mine Güven I Serkan Karaman I Zeynep Albora I Burcu Erkin Yıldızak I Bülent Doruker I Güliz Senok I Linda Kender I Buse Kasal I Melike Kurtcan I Fadime Melike TÜRKYILMAZ I Mpho Dlamini I Nazli Hepyaz Iseri I Sarah Utermark I Yılmaz Akbayır I Zeynep Kirkagaclioglu Yavas I Senay Gökpar Cengiz I Cem Birol
