Under the leadership of Diplomat Sertan Ayçiçek, IKAR Holdings has emerged as a global powerhouse, pioneering innovation across a wide range of industries. The group operates on a multi-sectoral level, driving progress in areas as diverse as aviation, technology, energy, education, and cryptocurrency.

The Founding Story of IKAR Holdings

IKAR Holdings was founded in London in 2019 by Professor Mario Diel, and since then, it has rapidly expanded both vertically and horizontally. The group, with Sertan Ayçiçek at the helm as CEO, now manages 40 companies that span 14 sectors, solidifying its place as a leader in global business. What sets IKAR apart is its bold, multi-layered approach to growth and development, driven by a commitment to entrepreneurial vision.

IKAR Holdings’ Structure and Sectors of Operation

The company’s diverse structure covers an impressive portfolio of industries, including aviation, technology, energy, education, health, sports, tourism, and cryptocurrency. This diversity allows IKAR Holdings to remain resilient in fluctuating global markets while staying ahead of industry trends. Each sector operates independently but benefits from the overarching strategy of the holding company, ensuring a synergistic relationship that drives success on a global scale.

Recent Investments

One of IKAR’s most notable ventures in 2024 was its entry into the cryptocurrency market through a strategic partnership with Unify Platform AG. Together, they launched the UPT Token (Unify Platform Token), tapping into the rapidly evolving world of decentralized finance. This partnership is expected to expand IKAR’s presence in the tech and financial sectors, providing innovative solutions in the growing cryptocurrency industry.

In the world of sports, IKAR Global Football was established in collaboration with the Javier Mascherano Academy. The partnership brings the expertise of former F.C. Barcelona and F.C. Liverpool star Javier Mascherano, who also holds the second-highest number of appearances for Argentina’s national team, only surpassed by Lionel Messi. IKAR Global Football is making significant strides in Europe, the GCC, and beyond, with a mission to revolutionize entrepreneurial activities in the football industry.

IKAR Holdings also expanded its geographic reach by founding Swiss Panasia Capital Holding (SPCH), which focuses on entrepreneurship in Southeast Asia and India. The company’s operations now span multiple Southeast Asian countries, including Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand, further strengthening its international presence.

Health Sector Developments

In the health sector, IKAR Holdings has demonstrated its commitment to innovation and public health. Through its subsidiary, Bluestain Global, the company developed the Bluestain Mpox (Monkeypox) virus detection kit. The initiative is part of a larger Pandemic Preparedness Initiative launched in collaboration with Unify Platform AG, Safely2Prosperity, and Bluestain Global. This project reflects IKAR’s forward-thinking approach to healthcare, particularly in its efforts to combat global pandemics.

Ongoing Projects and Future Plans

IKAR Holdings continues to innovate with exciting projects on the horizon. Among them are The Bitcoin Hotels, which aims to integrate cryptocurrency into the hospitality industry, and the Crypto Space Bank, which seeks to reshape banking in the digital age. The company is also venturing into media with IKAR Crypto TV, which is set to provide in-depth insights into the world of cryptocurrency.
