2 2 Dear Participants, Energy which is one of the most critical factors for a sustainable social and economic development of a country has also great importance for Turkey. In its committed endeavor to achieve sustainability, Turkey must ensure security of supply at the same time. When considering consumption figures, it seems that Turkey with its limited oil and natural gas resources requires many energy investments and projects. The great interest that domestic and foreign investors have shown in our energy sector in recent years is the result of this. Before taking any investment decision in energy projects investors need to look into project development and financing. Changing financial markets and long-term character of energy projects make the use of appropriate financing methods indispensable. The Energy Investment Conference organized by Euroforum will offer an insight into energy projects and financing methods with expert speakers and participants from Turkey and abroad. It will be a platform where representatives of different industries, financial institutions, investors and politics having an interest in the energy sector as a whole will obtain highly relevant information and can establish valuable contacts.
