Ali Sinan Öztürk

Founder with an industrial design background. For years I helped companies through their digital transformation with KeyShot and CAD/CAM solutions at Yedikare. Today we put that experience into building our own SaaS products: FiloKare brings fleet operations that used to be scattered across spreadsheets and WhatsApp groups into one cloud platform, and Syntopo is our next-generation project, to be announced soon.
