AI & Systems Strategist | Investor | Digital Media & Brand Consultant | Researcher
📝 I regularly publish articles on AI, digital transformation, and entrepreneurship at ertugrulakben.com
I'm a Turkish AI strategist, entrepreneur, and researcher based in Antalya. I founded Ağabeyoğlu Grup in 2016. In 2024 I founded EAGM Group Ltd. in London and exited in September 2026 (the company was sold); Tech AI Core LLC was founded in Delaware in 2025.
In 2025, I conducted AI-MOI Turkey 2025 research - surveying 490 companies and 1,414 participants across Turkey's seven regions to measure AI maturity in businesses. Result: Average score of 14.03/100, with only 8.6% of SMEs actively using AI.
I serve as Board Advisor at MASİAD (Manavgat Industrialists and Business People Association) since 2024, leading the organization's digital transformation and AI strategy.
I also built Artur (named JARVIS until October 2026), my personal AI operating system on Claude Code: 114 skills, 61 agents and 22 MCP servers, driven from my phone over Telegram, with live voice calls, WhatsApp automation and autonomous operation modes.
My approach treats AI not merely as a chatbot or content-generation layer, but as an operational intelligence backbone connecting CRM, ERP, finance, HR, production, quality, security, field operations, and management workflows. I am not a PLC/SCADA or mechatronics installer; I work as an AI systems architect who can bridge white-collar digital transformation with factory-floor realities such as cameras, field data, production workflows, quality control, safety, IoT signals, and enterprise systems.
For projects requiring production-line automation, sensor data, PLC/SCADA, robotics, or industrial IoT, I build hybrid consortium models with specialized engineering partners in ecosystems such as Siemens, GE, and comparable industrial technology stacks.
