Subsequent to a very competitive screening process by the Ministry of Development, SUNUM was selected as one of the four National Research Infrastructures in 2017. It is currently re-structuring within its host organization, establishing a new legal identity while maintaining close organic ties with Sabancı University.
SUNUM follows the unique example of Sabancı University for multi-disciplinary application oriented research with its “creating and developing together”strategy and “no departments, no walls” approach, complementing the research expertise of different internal units and external stakeholders.
