Afterwards, Yaşar Adanalı, one of CIP’s first supervisors and the founder of Postane, joined the event online and shared his reflections on CIP’s 25-year journey and how this journey continues to shape his life through different channels.
Tara Hopkins, CIP’s first instructor, was also with us on this special day. She shared her memories of CIP’s founding years at Sabancı University.
At the events held in Postane Hall, ideas, wishes, and plans for CIP’s next 25 years were shared. To grow and shape this journey together, former supervisors and overvisors who have served at CIP contributed their insights to the process. The gathering concluded enjoyably with a cocktail held at the Postane Terrace.The gathering concluded with a delightful cocktail reception on the Postane Terrace.
