This year, the festival features 116 stands, including 81 stakeholder stands, 11 sponsor stands, and four stands from participating companies/institutions, alongside 20 food court participants. The event also showcases national and indigenous aerial vehicles, with flight demonstrations from various aircraft, including the Bayraktar AKINCI, Bayraktar TB2, HURKUŞ, ANKA, AKSUNGUR, Gendarmerie Steel Wings, ATAK helicopter, Turkish Stars, SOLOTURK, and more.
Organized by the Turkish Technology Team (T3) Foundation and Türkiye’s Ministry of Industry and Technology, TEKNOFEST has become a key event for technological innovation and development. The festival, supported by numerous government bodies, private sector partners, and universities, has been held annually since 2018.
