A Magnificent Night Crowned with Inspiration from Vizyon Media

There are certain nights when it’s not just about handing out awards; it’s about celebrating a mindset. One such night unfolded at the 6th International Success Awards ceremony, “40 Women, 40 Awards,” organized by the Federation for the Development and Advancement of the Business World and Vision Media Group, which has become a tradition.

When the lights came on, the hall was filled not just with the story of an organization, but with the story of hard work, resilience, and inspiration. Forty women who have made their mark in many fields, from business to art, health to media, were honored with applause.

The evening was attended by Cavit Babur, President of the International Health Tourism Confederation (YİK), renowned Obstetrician Prof. Dr. Haşmet Mesut Özsoy, Businessman Yavuz Göl, Deputy Chairman of the Board of Directors of Vizyon Media Group and Karabağlar Media Group, and many distinguished guests.

Taner Özgür, President of IDÜFED and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Vision Media Group, who hosted the evening, addressed the audience with the following words in his opening speech:

“Tonight, we are not just giving awards. Tonight, we are declaring that nothing can stand in the way of determination, courage, and productivity. Women are at the center of life. She is the driving force behind the economy, art, science, and media. We are here to make success visible and multiply inspiration. Because we believe that the rise of a woman is the rise of society. We are honoring 40 women, but in fact, we are planting 40 seeds of hope for the future. This ceremony is not an end; it is the beginning of even greater success stories.”

The applause in the hall amplified the echo of the words.

During the evening, retired TRT artist Arife Soydemir and artist Gamze Aşık were both honored with awards and added emotional and enthusiastic moments to the evening with the pieces they performed.

Every name that took the stage throughout the program represented not only their own success but also a journey woven with struggle. The applause sometimes rose to the determination of a mother, sometimes to the courage of an entrepreneur, and sometimes to the healing power of art.
