We Completed the Business & Human Rights Accelerator Program

In today’s corporate world, transformation is not only about technology but also about values. At PEAKUP, we have taken an important step to place human rights at the heart of our corporate culture in line with our global sustainability vision.

In this context, our Legal & Compliance Director Demet Ceylan Demircan and Senior Project Manager Gamze Mıhçı participated in the Business & Human Rights Accelerator program organized by UN Global Compact Türkiye, further advancing our corporate awareness in this field.

Integrating Human Rights into Business Processes

This six-month global program, joined by 26 companies, aims to help businesses turn their United Nations Sustainable Development commitments into concrete action plans, establish systematic evaluation processes, and ensure alignment with global standards. Throughout the program:

  • Human rights risks were identified,

  • In-depth studies were carried out on how to integrate them into processes,

  • Comparative analyses with international examples were conducted,

  • A tailored Human Rights Action Plan was created for our company.

 

“Human Rights–Oriented Business Models Are the Foundation of a Sustainable Future”

After the program, Demet Ceylan Demircan shared the following insight:

“Thanks to the Business & Human Rights Accelerator program, we deepened our awareness of the role of human rights in the business world. We are excited to integrate this approach into PEAKUP’s practices. I believe that human rights–oriented business models are one of the cornerstones of a sustainable future.”

By joining this program, we have once again demonstrated our commitment not only to technology-driven solutions but also to building an ethical, transparent, and inclusive corporate culture. From employee experience to customer relations, we embrace responsible business models that respect human rights in every aspect of our work.

Climbing Higher on the Turkishtime R&D 500 List

Turkishtime has announced its R&D 500 list, one of Turkey’s most comprehensive research studies on R&D. According to the results, PEAKUP secured a spot among the top 500 companies with the highest R&D investments in Turkey, moving up from 246th place last year to 230th this year, further solidifying its success.
