Other key findings:

  • Overall advertising and media investments in 2020 directly and indirectly generated about 340 billion TL (24 billion Euros) in GDP, representing 6.73% of Turkey’s overall GDP.
  • Advertising provides more than 602,000 jobs, equivalent to 2.25% of total national employment.
