Address
09:40 Keynote Session: Turkish and global
market trends
Several of Turkeys key market players together
with international experts will discuss the
changes in the countrys pattern of production,
exports and imports. Some Gulf countries with
their lower annual rends and export markets of
Turkeyconsumption and increasing domestic
production capacities continue to replace
imports with local supplies. Turkish producers
are now seeking new opportunities globally, as
well as looking to keep their market share in
the Middle East. This initial session of the
forum will set the scene for a Turkish steel
market in flux.

11:30 Session 2: New investments in Turkey
and changing market patterns
Turkish entrepreneurs have put the country among
the top producers in the world: and with the
global market again expanding, they are now
adding to their steel making and re-rolling
capacities. The investors in new flat products,
as well as in new capacities for value added
long products are changing the profile of the
Turkish steel market. Existing producers, new
investors and experts will discuss these
developments.

14:00 Session 3: Dynamics of the local Turkish
market
Growing domestic steel consumption has been an
important driver for Turkeys steel industry
over the last past year or two, given the
absence of high tonnages and acceptable profit
margins in the finished steel export markets. In
this session, local market players will focus on
the new opportunities and the (micro-) dynamics
the local markets. In particular, they will
discuss the automotive, construction and
ship-breaking sectors.
