🌟 A full room, an engaged audience, and conversations that carried well beyond the presentations 🌟

We were delighted to host a TBCCI event in collaboration with Allianz Trade at Canary Wharf, bringing together many of our long-standing members alongside new faces, with strong representation from the financial sector and banking community.

📌 TBCCI Chairman, Senem Dedeoglu, opened the afternoon with a warm welcome, setting the tone for what became a highly interactive session.

📌 Maxime Darmet Cucchiarini, Senior Economist at Allianz Trade, offered a compelling perspective on the global, UK, and Turkish economic outlook. Even in a subject often perceived as complex, he captured the room’s full attention, prompting a steady flow of questions and discussion.

📌 This momentum continued with Özlem Özüner, Commercial Director B2B E-Commerce at Allianz Trade, who brought a fresh and practical lens to the conversation. Her presentation of the B2B Buy Now, Pay Later payment solution highlighted how businesses are rethinking cash flow, reducing payment friction, and unlocking growth through more flexible, customer-centric solutions.

What stood out most was the level of engagement. The discussion did not end with the presentations. It carried into a lively networking session, where connections were strengthened, new relationships were formed, and ideas continued to be exchanged 🟥

A sincere thank you to Allianz Trade for hosting us, and to Raphaele Coutant-Roch, Özlem, and Maxime for their generous hospitality and for delivering such an insightful and engaging session.

We are grateful to all our members and guests who contributed to such a dynamic and enjoyable afternoon. This is exactly what TBCCI aims to foster: meaningful dialogue, valuable insight, and a strong, connected business community ✨
