Information and Technology.
These two have been indispensable areas since the initial days of our foundation.
We have believed in knowledge, receiving and providing information.
Implementation and yielding results have been our constant goals.
What we have designed in our minds have come to life with our hands.
This is why, the first company of our group, International Technology and Knowledge Company,
which was founded in 1987 on the basis of ‘spin-off’ phenomenon and moved with the initial velocity it got from the Robotics Institute at Carnegie Mellon University located in Pittsburgh – USA, bears knowledge and technology in its title.
In 1991, we arrived in İstanbul to continue our operations in Türkiye as İntekno Teknoloji Transfer San. ve Tic. A.Ş.
We enabled technology transfer through application of advanced technologies in our country.
We have aimed at transferring knowledge and technology into life, in line with our faith and values.
For the people… For the society.
We never forgot our engineering background in the following periods.
We have continuously blended our technical know-how and experiences with our own culture.
Exerting utmost effort, we have worked to be different.
A poem by Mawlana has always been in our minds:
We went beyond our circles. We wanted to think different and be different.
Agility and resilience have rendered us even more different.
Our Mission
Just Do It
Who can find trace of you?
There isn’t even a bit of dust from your track.
Who could find your home?
You Have no home.
How can praise you?
What can I say about you?
Foam is the only form in the sea of meaning.
A great, unseen town
Lies just behind that curtain.
Our world is nothing compared to that.
Don’t lower yourself.
Don’t knock on every door.
You yourself are what you’re looking for
O heart, raise your tent up to the sky.
Don’t say “I can’t.”
Sure you can.
Just do it.
Our Vision
Two Kinds of Intelligence
There are two kinds of intelligence: one acquired,
as a child in school memorizes facts and concepts
from books and from what the teacher says,
collecting information from the traditional sciences
As well as from the new sciences.
With such intelligence you rise in the world.
You get ranked ahead or behind others
in regard to your competence in retaining information.
You stroll with this intelligence in and out of fields
of knowledge, getting always more marks on your preserving tablets.
There is another kind of tablet, one
already completed and preserved inside you.
A spring overflowing its springbox. A freshness
in the center of the chest. This other intelligence
does not turn yellow or stagnate. It’s fluid,
and it doesn’t move from outside to inside
through the conduits of plumbing learning.
This second knowing is a fountainhead
from within you, moving out.
Our Values
Mirror
You have no idea
how hard I have looked for a gift to bring You.
Nothing seemed right.
What is the point of bringing gold to a gold mine,
or water to the ocean.
Everything I came up with
was like taking spices to the Orient.
It is no good giving my heart and soul,
because You already have these.
So – I have brought you a mirror.
Look at yourself and remember me.
Mevlana Celaleddin Rumî (1207 – 1273)
