Havelsan
In a landmark move for Turkey’s software landscape, Link Bilgisayar has officially bypassed a critical threshold in defense technology. Following a rigorous auditing process, the company was inducted into the HAVELSAN Approved Supplier List on February 18, 2026. This partnership signals a powerful alignment between a long-standing software veteran and one of the nation’s premier defense and technology giants.
A Seal of Excellence in Engineering and Quality
HAVELSAN’s comprehensive evaluation report highlighted Link’s proficiency across three core pillars: administrative excellence, technical implementation, and quality assurance. The successful audit proves that Link’s corporate structure and engineering discipline meet the stringent security and sustainability standards required for high-stakes defense projects.
From Software Provider to Defense Powerhouse
The announcement, communicated via the Public Disclosure Platform (KAP), outlines Link’s vision to leverage this status for long-term growth. The company aims to move beyond standard software offerings to provide high-value system integration and digital transformation solutions specifically tailored for public and defense sector requirements.
The Global Vision: AI, Cloud, and Sustainability
Link General Manager Murat Pekmezyan emphasized that this development is a validation of the company’s evolution. “We have transformed from a traditional software firm into a multi-layered technology entity developing cloud, AI, and security platforms,” Pekmezyan stated. He further noted that HAVELSAN’s global footprint provides a springboard for Link to export its local R&D successes to international markets, aiming to become a global technology partner.
