Turkey

Turkey is a transcontinental country that has been developing its own AI strategy and regulatory approach, and it is relevant to governance teams operating across Europe and the Middle East. The country published a national AI strategy and has been drafting legislation that would introduce rules on AI systems, data protection, and automated decision-making, with its data protection law (KVKK) already shaping how companies handle personal data. For enterprises with Turkish customers, employees, or operations, these developments matter because they can create separate obligations that sit alongside EU and other international frameworks.
