About this event
If you're in Istanbul for IBW and want a place to actually build, connect, and make progress with other serious people, this is where to be. SuperteamTR Build Station @IBW #1 is designed for builders, operators, and curious contributors who want more than casual small talk; it gives you a focused in-person space to meet the local community, exchange ideas, and move projects forward. What Is This? This is an in-person community build station and meetup hosted in Şişli during IBW. Think of it as a working session with a strong social layer: part builder hub, part networking space, and part local gathering point for people who want to spend time with others who are actively creating. Rather than a formal conference-style event where you sit through a long sequence of talks, the format is more practical and open. You can expect a room where conversations happen naturally, introductions turn into working sessions, and people can drop into discussions around projects, ideas, opportunities, and collaboration. The focus is simple: create a useful environment for the SuperteamTR and wider community to meet in person, share what they're working on, and help each other make progress. Whether you're early in your journey or already deep in the ecosystem, the point is to leave with stronger connections and clearer next steps. What to Expect The event starts on Tuesday, June 2 at 2:00 PM GMT+3 in Şişli, Türkiye, with an in-person setup that supports both conversation and collaboration. Because this is a build station, the energy is likely to be more active and participatory than a typical meetup. Bring your questions, your ideas, and, if relevant, your laptop or current work. You can expect a mix of activities such as: Open networking with other attendees from the Turkey and IBW community Project conversations where you can share what you're building or exploring Peer feedback on ideas, products, community initiatives, or next steps Informal working time for people who want to sit down and make progress together Serendipitous introductions that can lead to future partnerships, friendships, or collaborations Some people will come to meet the community for the first time. Others will come with a specific goal: find collaborators, test an idea, ask for guidance, or reconnect with familiar faces during a busy week. Both approaches fit the format well. Because the event is grounded in community, one of the most valuable parts is often what isn't scheduled on a rigid agenda: the side conversations, the quick problem-solving moments, and the chance to meet people you'd probably never find through online channels alone. Why Attend IBW brings a lot of people into the same city at the same time, but that doesn't automatically create meaningful connection. This event gives you a more focused setting where it's easier to have real conversations, spend time with the right people, and avoid getting lost in a crowded week. If you are building something, this is a chance to pressure-test your thinking in person. You can talk through your product, community idea, growth challenge, or contribution path with people who understand the space and may offer practical perspectives you can use immediately. If you're still exploring where you fit, this is equally useful. Community-led spaces are one of the best ways to understand how people actually participate, collaborate, and support each other. You get a closer look at the local ecosystem and a better sense of how you might plug in. A few reasons this event is worth your time: You meet people in a context designed for action, not just socializing You can turn online connections into real working relationships You get exposure to what others in the community are building and thinking about You leave with stronger local context during IBW, not just a stack of vague contacts Practical Details Location: In person in Şişli, Türkiye. As a central and well-known part of Istanbul, Şişli makes sense as a gathering point during a busy city-wide event week. Be sure to check the event page for any final venue-specific instructions before you head out. Time: Tuesday, June 2 at 2:00 PM GMT+3. Since this is an in-person gathering built around community interaction, arriving on time will help you settle in early, meet people as they arrive, and make the most of the afternoon. This is a good event to approach with a little intention. It helps to come prepared to introduce yourself clearly, explain what you're working on or interested in, and be open to both structured and spontaneous conversations. If you have a current project, draft, or idea you want feedback on, bring it. Most of all, come ready to participate. The value of a build station comes from the people in the room choosing to share, ask, listen, and contribute. If that sounds like your kind of environment, SuperteamTR Build Station @IBW #1 is a strong place to spend part of your IBW week.
