Melis Özcan,
Business Development Team

Can you introduce yourself?

My name is Melis. I have finished my degree in International Relations at Ankara Yıldırım Beyazıt University. In addition my bachelor degree I started to take lessons from international trade because of my personal tendency. International markets, import -export, business development projects are belonging to my business face and Latin dances, photography, world cuisine, yoga and theatre are reflecting my social face. I really enjoyed being the part of the improvisation club during my bachelor and then in Prague, which helped me to open opinions and construct arguments from different points of view.

Why did you choose Prague? What was your motivation?

Erasmus internships were my motivations to working officially with Yeye. My short and long term internships opened new horizons in my point of view. I had lots of goals and expectations related with Yeye; in general learning foreign trade conditions, marketing, export and import process between countries. And personally improving myself and a unique start to my business career. Finally, I want to learn on the job, which is why I’d like to work with Yeye Agency.

So far, in industry and services aspect what kind of projects you had?

One of the good things is that I am not focusing only one industry or service so I fell more creative in this aspect. Generally, I am responsible for creating new projects for the development of trade relations, forming a business plan and strategy, cooperating and managing marketing project between CZ and Turkey organized with ČTSOK.

How is it like to be a part of Yeye Agency Team?

Every day was a new chance to meet the various type of people from different cultures and to achieve the greatest experience so I think I am a lucky person to be a part of this team.

What’s your future plans and dreams?

I would like to achieve many things but there are some main things I would like to accomplish: to specialize in what I do and what I learn, to have an academical career, to learn Czech and Spanish languages, to be a good chef in my dream little cafe, to hold an a exhibition and to go Latin America :) ‘Living in Prague, Laugh enough’.
