Category Standard

Sisal Digital Hub Türkiye is a significant technology division (350 employees) supporting Sisal Şans (operator of Turkey's National Lottery) and Flutter Entertainment. While the submission quality is poor—relying on vague claims like 'everyone' for reach and ambiguous revenue figures—external verification confirms the entity operates at a massive scale with millions of active users and high transaction volumes. The project demonstrates high real-world utility as a corporate R&D and near-shoring hub, though the specific innovation details provided were generic.
