The 1st International Digital Transformation and New Media Symposium seems to have led to the establishment of numerous collaborations and the emergence of joint and innovative studies.

All the academic and administrative staff of our faculty who contributed to the symposium were not forgotten after this difficult period. After the farewell of our participating guests at the end of the symposium, certificates of appreciation were presented to all our academic and administrative staff with a small celebration.
The process for the publication of the Abstract Proceedings Book and Full Text Proceedings Book for BAIBUILEF-IG 2024 is now ongoing. Theme determination studies for BAIBUILEF-IG 2025 have also started in this sense. Hopefully, our faculty will host a brand new, productive, beneficial, and exciting International Symposium in May 2025.
