Microsoft Turkey left behind rapidly growing countries such as China, India, Brazil, and Russia as it was once again named Country of the Year. Regional General Manager Tamer Özmen was handed the Champions Cup by Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer.
Based out of the US city of Atlanta with 40 thousand employees, Microsoft held an awards ceremony for Country of the Year at the Microsoft Global Exchange Summit. Baller said at the ceremony, Microsoft Turkey has become the champion. It is a real success story with its 350 employees and 11 thousand business partners. Every country looks to Turkeys economy with envy as it competes with China in the global economic growth rate league, having a dynamic and rising spirit of entrepreneurship as well as growing information technologies.
