What does your job entail, and what do you enjoy most about it?

My job involves managing the holding, identifying acquisition opportunities in line with our strategy, managing acquisitions, assisting with the creation or modification of strategies at acquisition entities, and team supplementation. I immensely enjoy my work because it offers continuous learning. Each company I work with presents new challenges and perspectives. Additionally, I have the opportunity to collaborate with various people, and as we know, each person is unique and brings their distinct experiences and viewpoints, enriching both my professional and personal life.

How would you introduce the company you work for?

As the saying goes, behind every discovery, every advancement, every innovation, there's a story. I would introduce Behind Inventions as a company founded on the belief that innovation is the driving force of the world. We constantly find ourselves at the forefront of those pushing the boundaries of what is considered possible. What sets us apart? Our uncompromising flexibility. We believe that in a world that is constantly changing, it is essential to be adaptable and capable of responding to new challenges instantly. But what truly defines us is our inventiveness. In every member of our team, there is an innate desire to explore, experiment, and create something new. This unites and motivates us to create a better future every day. At Behind Inventions, we don't just observe the future; we actively shape it.

Can you describe your immediate work plans?

We have ambitious plans for the future. We are constantly looking for new opportunities, aiming to execute several significant deals that will bring joy not only to us but also to our partners on the other side. We believe in the principle of "win-win" and consider it a fundamental pillar of our business. Mutual success is not just a goal for us, but an absolute necessity.

Do you have a motto that guides you in your professional life?

"Be beneficial and not ungrateful." This is a powerful reminder for me that the true value of life lies in how we contribute to the well-being of others, while maintaining a sense of gratitude and humility. I wish to, and strive to be someone who actively contributes to a better world and appreciates the opportunities that life offers. Instead of focusing on shortcomings or complaining, I prefer to focus on how I can be useful and express gratitude. I believe in the power of a positive approach. To create value and be beneficial means to have an impact on the world around you and to inspire others to do the same. I don't want to be a passive observer in my life, but an active participant who takes responsibility for my actions and their impacts. And while I want to be beneficial, I realize that it's important not to succumb to ingratitude. I believe in balance between giving and receiving, between work and rest, between ambition and gratitude.

What has been the defining factor for your career?

The defining factor of my career has been the invaluable support of my family. My husband, with his immense understanding and endless tolerance, has been my solid foundation at every step of my professional journey. Their faith in me and the ability to understand the demands of my career have given me the strength and motivation to overcome obstacles and continue developing. My career is not just about my successes, but about the successes of the whole family that supported me every day.
