Electric vehicle charging points are becoming widespread. We are in talks with major foreign companies globally. In the coming period, we will see changes at petrol stations. Our company is prepared for this because there are two important matters here. First is your product portfolio, and second is your software infrastructure. We are currently in a position to comfortably meet market needs in this regard. With the company we acquired in Turkey, we made a significant transfer of technology and human resources. Through this acquisition, we increased employment and are contributing to exports. Therefore, I am proud of both the R&D infrastructure we have brought to the country and our contribution to exports."
