The story
Mehmed Said Pasha (1838–1914), who was brought to the vice president in 1879, started to work to make an organization that would gather sector representatives under the same roof with regard to the problems of trade and industry. As a result of the works, the foundation of the chamber has been approved with the certify of Sultan II. Abdülhamid, Dersaadet Chamber of Commerce was founded completing the organization actions in 1882. [5] Dersaadet Chamber of Commerce provided the qualified personnel required by commercial life mostly from Darülfünun. This case would eventually evolve into the process of training the already trained manpower of himself.
The name of Darülfünun Dersaadet Chamber of Commerce changed to Istanbul Chamber of Commerce during the Republic period. The offer to establish a university within the chamber was officially offered by İsmail Özarslan in 1992 in ITO General Assembly. The offer was approved under the name of Ticaret University and studies started on this date.
ITO started its efforts in terms of establishing the university, established the university by the Istanbul Chamber of Commerce Education and Social Services Foundation. Article 5 of Law numbered 4633 and dated 14 April 2001, which is the founding law, was as follows:
The university's Establishment and Home Organization Regulation No. 24592 of the date 23 November 2001 published in the official newspaper and therefore with 73 students graduate in 2001, it began teaching as one of Turkey's first private university.
The support of the Istanbul Chamber of Commerce has been one of the key stones of the university's teaching philosophy and a teaching model which is close to the business world has been adopted. The support of ITO was approved to continue more effectively than before. The name of İsmail Özarslan, the originator of the idea, was given to the conference hall in Eminönü Campus of the university with the cooperation protocol signed between the university and ITO on 11 July 2012.
