In late 2026, Istanbul is set to host two distinct high level gatherings. 

On November 17, the Kulüpler Birliği Vakfı will host a Football Summit at the Swissôtel The Bosphorus. Organized by Ertuğrul Doğan, the event aims to evaluate the future of Turkish football through discussions on management, economic sustainability, and broadcasting technologies involving academics, journalists, and club representatives.

Separately, the 17th Boğaziçi Summit, organized by the International Cooperation Platform, is scheduled for November 5-6.
