Tosyalı Has Become Türkiye's Largest And Europe's Third-Largest Steel Producer
Türkiye's global steel producer Tosyalı continues its global growth with nearly 50 facilities across 3 continents, a liquid steel production capacity of 15 million tons, and approximately 15,000 employees.
Drawing attention with its investments in high value-added qualified steel production by determining sustainability as the main agenda, Tosyalı is rapidly climbing the steps in world steel production with its production complexes in different geographies of the world, green steel products produced with advanced technology, R&D and innovation, strong equity and highly competent employees.
Amid the challenging global conditions in 2024, a difficult year for steel producers worldwide, Tosyalı achieved a rapid rise in the global rankings, adding yet another success to its record. According to data released by the World Steel Association, Tosyalı produced 9.12 million tons of liquid steel in 2024 and climbed 21 places compared to the previous year, reaching 46th position in the world rankings. With a 54.3% increase in production, Tosyalı has become one of the world's top 3 fastest-growing steel producers. Today, Tosyalı has reached the position of Türkiye's largest steel producer while also strengthening its strong position in the global arena as Europe's third-largest steel producer. Additionally, the company entered the world's top 50 steel producers, crossing a significant milestone for the industry.
Stating that Tosyalı's global success is based on well-planned strategic investments and qualified steel production, Fuat Tosyalı, Chairman of the Board of Tosyalı Holding, said: "As Tosyalı, we have identified sustainability, efficiency and economies of scale as three important priorities. With this strategy, we continue to grow in a healthy and stable manner with eco-efficiency-oriented investments in Türkiye and in different geographies around the world.
We completed Tosyalı Demir Çelik İskenderun Plant, the largest industrial investment of our country in recent years, despite the major earthquake disaster and started the first production in 2023. This plant eliminated Türkiye's 4 million tons of flat steel imports and started to make a significant contribution to value-added steel exports. We are taking firm steps towards becoming one of the most important and strategic integrated iron and steel production centers not only in the Mediterranean basin and Africa, but also in the world with our fourth phase investments in our five-phase Tosyalı Algérie production complex, which is one of the driving forces of our success as a global steel company to date. We have also initiated investments in Libya as a strategic step in Africa. With our investments in Türkiye, Algeria, Spain and Libya, we are strengthening our position as a global steel producer day by day.
As Tosyalı, our total investment amount in the last 5 years is over 6 billion USD and the majority of these are sustainability-oriented investments. Our investments in R&D, advanced technology, circular production, and clean energy sources such as solar and hydrogen continue without interruption. At the same time, we are focusing on efficiency, which is also one of the main issues of sustainability, and we tend to produce more by consuming fewer resources. We continue to achieve sustainable growth thanks to our completely independent, yet dynamic and efficient structure that analyzes everything from the mine to the final product within the Tosyalı ecosystem.
Thus, we continue our rapid yet steady rise in the world rankings. Between 2020 and 2024, we increased our global crude steel production by 110%. Due to this progress, we have entered the world's top 50 companies, becoming Türkiye's largest and Europe's third-largest steel producer. Among the top 50 companies, we are the only one to continuously rise in the global rankings every year. Our steady and sustainable growth continues, and with our production figures, we have taken a very strong step toward moving up to the next league on a global scale. In the next 4–5 years, as our ongoing investments begin production, we will move forward with confidence toward our goal of becoming one of the world's top 20 steel companies.

IT Leaders optimistic on Agentic AI, but Concerned by Organizational Readiness, Research Reveals
As AI adoption accelerates and cyber threats increase, nearly 8 in 10 IT security leaders recognize their security practices need transformation. Salesforce's latest State of IT data also reveals unanimous optimism about AI agents, with 100% of security leaders identifying at least one security concern that could be improved by despite this hope, the global survey of over 2,000 enterprise IT security leaders highlights significant implementation challenges ahead. Nearly half (48%) worry their data foundation isn't set up to get the most out of agentic AI, and over half (55%) aren't fully confident they have the appropriate guardrails to deploy AI it matters: Both the professionals charged with protecting a company's data and systems and the bad actors looking to exploit vulnerabilities are increasingly adding AI to their toolkits. Autonomous AI agents, which help security teams cut down on manual work, can free up humans' time for more complex problem solving. However, agentic AI deployments require robust data infrastructure and governance to be perspective: 'Trusted AI agents are built on trusted data. IT security teams that prioritize data governance will be able to augment their security capabilities with agents while protecting data and staying compliant,' said Alice Steinglass, EVP & GM, Salesforce Platform, Integration and Alkhotani, SVP and GM, Salesforce Middle East, said: 'The latest State of IT report is a cause for both optimism and concern, and also aligns with the concerns we see among organizations in the Middle East. While the research underscores the confidence that organizations have in agentic AI to improve key aspects of their operations and processes, it also reveals significant concerns that must be addressed: It is clear that many IT security leaders are concerned about issues including the readiness of their organization's data foundation for AI, the state of their guardrails to deploy AI agents, and the potential for compliance challenges stemming from AI. Amid these anxieties, it is vital that organizations in the Middle East work with a trusted partner such as Salesforce, enabling them scale up agentic AI quickly, effectively, and ethically.'Security budgets ramp up as threats evolveIn addition to a familiar slate of risks like cloud security threats, malware, and phishing attacks, IT leaders now cite data poisoning — in which malicious actors compromise AI training data sets — among their top concerns. Resources are rising in response: 75% of organizations expect to increase security budgets over the coming regulatory environments add a wrinkle to AI implementationWhile four-fifths of IT security leaders believe AI agents offer compliance opportunities, such as improving adherence to global privacy laws, nearly as many (79%) say they also present compliance challenges. This may stem in part from an increasingly complex and evolving regulatory environment across geographies and industries, and is hampered by compliance processes that remain largely unautomated and prone to error.• Just 47% are fully confident they can deploy AI agents in compliance with regulations and standards.• 83% of organizations say they haven't fully automated their compliance is a cornerstone of successful AI, yet confidence is nascentA recent consumer study found that trust in companies is on a precipitous decline, and three-fifths (60%) agree that advances in AI make a business's trustworthiness more critical. Furthermore, only 42% of consumers trust companies to use AI ethically, a decrease from 58% in 2023. IT security leaders see work to be done in earning this critical trust.• 57% aren't fully confident in the accuracy or explainability of their AI outputs.• 60% don't provide full transparency into how customer data is used in AI.• 59% haven't perfected their ethical guidelines for AI governance is a linchpin in enterprises' agentic evolutionNearly half of IT security leaders aren't sure they have the quality data to underpin agents, or that they could deploy the technology with the right permissions, policies, and guardrails, but progress is being made. A recent survey of CIOs found that four times as much budget was allocated to data infrastructure and management than AI, a signal that organizations were smartly laying the right groundwork for broader agents offer a salve as adoption ramps upAccording to the State of IT research, over 40% of IT security teams already use agents in their day-to-day operations — a figure that's anticipated to nearly double over the next two years. IT security leaders expect a range of benefits as their use of agents ramps up, ranging from threat detection to sophisticated auditing of AI model performance. Three quarters (75%) expect to use AI agents within two years — up from 41% overhauls are on tapIn addition to the steps these teams must take to shore up their data foundations for the agentic era, over half admit they have work to do to bring their overall security and compliance practices up to par. Forty-seven percent believe their security and compliance practices are fully prepared for AI agent development and customer view: Arizona State University (ASU) is among the first universities to leverage Agentforce, Salesforce's digital labor platform for augmenting teams with trusted autonomous AI agents in the flow of work. ASU stresses the need for data relevancy, especially as the university advances its AI initiatives.
