ABOUT BUKET SAHIN
I operate at the intersection of science, innovation, and market reality.With a background in chemistry & sensory science (PhD), combined with industry experience and an MBA, I specialize in translating complex scientific insights into market-relevant innovation strategies.Over the past years, I have worked across research organizations and industry environments, gaining a deep understanding of how innovation systems function — and where they fail. My work focuses particularly on bridging the structural gap between early-stage research and successful market adoption.I am especially interested in-R&D and innovation strategy-Translational interfaces between science and business-Customer-centric product development grounded in scientific insight-Overcoming systemic barriers in innovation ecosystemsMy strength lies in understanding, structuring, and guiding innovation at a strategic level rather than in sales-driven environments.
