new industrial policy

n Turkey, our major problem is that
we have been acting in a way as if
we are not yet aware of the new in-
dustrial revolution. Being unfamiliar
with what has been changed through
the developments in IT and commu-
nications is preventing Turkey from
structuring its exports incentive sys-
tem correctly. On the other hand, we
can not spread our own innovation
culture by simply telling people stories
about innovation. Turkey needs some
thorough technological renovation, a
new industrial policy, and a brand new
story of growth.
