On 4 September 2026, İstanbul Ticaret Gazetesi, the newspaper of the İstanbul Chamber of Commerce, published a feature interview with our CEO and co-founder Mustafa Kaykısız under the headline “Türkiye’nin çip gücü büyüyor” (“Türkiye’s chip power is growing”).

Highlights from the interview

• How years in optics and space technology in the Netherlands, including work on the Sentinel-5 satellite programme, led to founding Lorentis in Teknopark İstanbul.
• Why the silicon photonic gyroscope bridges the gap between expensive fibre-optic gyros and low-cost MEMS sensors by bringing optical-gyro physics onto a mass-producible chip.
• Four patent applications, machine-learning-based calibration and a roadmap from gyroscope to IMU to a full inertial navigation system family.
• International momentum: acceptance into EuroCDP, an application to NATO DIANA, and design and R&D access with imec, X-FAB and TSMC.

Brain drain is not destiny. Engineers come back when they see truly ambitious work being done here. That is why we built Lorentis.Mustafa Kaykısız, CEO & Co-founder, Lorentis Electronics
