In your own words, what’s your role in the app business right now? Can you tell us about your journey into this market and also in Adjust?
As the CEO of Adjust, my job is to guide our team and keep us innovating. My journey started about 10 years ago when I moved to Berlin from France and joined Adjust as an Integrations Engineer. I was one of the company’s first employees.
I’ve held various roles since then – everything from Head of Solutions and Integrations to VP of Support, and Chief Customer Officer. Each role taught me something new about our business and our clients. Now, as CEO, I’m excited to lead our team and help our clients make the best decisions for their apps.

The young, tech-savvy population here is driving rapid mobile adoption and innovation, making Türkiye a crucial market for us. Our recent Mobile Growth Report shows that Türkiye is outperforming global averages in app installs and sessions, which is really exciting.
