Who is Ebru Baki?
As you know, TEDxBahcesehirUniversity will take place on Sunday, April 15, on the Zorlu PSM Main Stage. In fact, Early Bird tickets have already sold out! As the event approaches we will be announcing our other speakers, and as we always say: We want you to form a meaningful connection with our speakers.
That's why we want to introduce them a little, and perhaps make you curious about them and the topic they will talk about so you look into it. Our next speaker: Ebru Baki!
Ebru Baki, whom most of us know from the magic screen, was born in Istanbul in 1975. A graduate of the Journalism Department at Marmara University, Baki began interning at the Economy Desk of Hürriyet newspaper while still at university.
From high school onward she spent periods abroad for her education and benefited from student exchange programs and various scholarships.
After the Faculty of Communication, she went on to the International Economics Department of the Marmara University Faculty of Economics and Administrative Sciences (İDBF). She spent 7 years at Hürriyet newspaper, going from intern to reporter.
After Hürriyet, her television adventure began. She presented economic news on CNN TÜRK while continuing to work as a reporter. Between 2001 and 2014 she produced economics programs on CNN TÜRK and also worked as an editor. In 2014 she became Economics News Manager. In 2016 she was appointed Head of Economics at CNN TÜRK.
Baki presents "Günün Ekonomisi" (The Economy of the Day) and "Parametre", which air on CNN TÜRK every weekday.
Ebru Baki says, ''I entered this profession alongside very respected and successful names. I grew up next to them and I'm still growing.'' She sees the part-time conservatory training she received as her greatest help in every area of life. According to Baki, the most beautiful sport in the world is horse riding; and piano is a passion for her.
