The founders also took the time to re-imagine Aybuben, modeling it in line with current industry trends. In 2023 Aybuben is relaunching as a cutting-edge venture studio. Aybuben is built to launch the most promising companies with mature tech entrepreneurs and exceptional talents, focusing on the AI in order to reshape telecommunications, financial markets, edtech and other innovative sectors. It is also aiming to help companies successfully access the markets around the world by cooperating with the diaspora.
