Efe Aydın
Entrepreneur and product builder from Istanbul, building Netik — an AI-native media startup helping people understand news beyond headlines.
I'm a 19-year-old founder from Istanbul, Türkiye, interested in media, technology, product strategy, and entrepreneurship. I learn best by building real things, asking questions, and testing ideas against reality.
Netik
Netik is my attempt to rethink how news is consumed in Türkiye. Most news products are built around speed, volume, and attention. Netik is being built around context, trust, and meaning.
The product is still in development — I'm actively researching, prototyping, and testing early MVP ideas.
I learn by doing. I care about understanding problems deeply before trying to solve them. For me, building is not only writing code — it is connecting research, product thinking, design, technology, and execution.
We don't need more information. We need better meaning.
I'm interested in CODE because of its project-based learning culture, entrepreneurial environment, and focus on building real products. I want to grow around ambitious founders, builders, designers, engineers, and people who care about turning ideas into reality.
