From January 20 to 25, 2025, Yıldız Technical University hosted the Mediterranean Regional Coordination Meeting (MedRCM).
Organized under ESTIEM (European Students of Industrial Engineering and Management), the event brought together active members from Local Groups across the Mediterranean Region. During the meeting, participants discussed the current status of their Local Groups, exchanged insights, and collaborated on strategies for regional development and stronger cooperation.
The week-long program featured various training sessions and workshops, allowing attendees to gain new perspectives, develop soft skills, and strengthen the well-known “Hotties Spirit” — a core cultural element of the region.
With a creative Harry Potter theme, the event successfully combined academic content with social engagement, providing an enriching international experience for all participants.
