    "Boğaziçi University (Turkish: Boğaziçi Üniversitesi) is one of the most prominent educational institutions in Turkey. The university is located on the European side of the Bosphorus in Istanbul (hence the name, which means 'Bosphorus University'​).
    The institution was established in 1971 on the campus of Robert College, which, in turn, was established in 1863 as the first American school outside of the United States."​

    🇺🇸"Breaking Boundaries," written by Esra Talu, is an inspiring digital book on the journey of entrepreneurship and technology. The book narrates the founding story of Deppo, which began in 1999 and became one of Turkey's first e-commerce companies. This story is built on the extraordinary visionary efforts and mutual trust of a group of individuals, particularly under the conditions of that era. Esra describes how Deppo was brought to life as a valuable brand, the changes it underwent over the years, new partnerships, and how the company continued to succeed for many years even after the dispersion of its core team. While bidding farewell to Deppo after 15 years, she emphasizes the importance of documenting these experiences. The book, dedicated to everyone with an entrepreneurial spirit, inspires readers with Esra's genuine style. Published in Istanbul in October 2019, this work is presented with the hope that every effort invested becomes enduring.

    🇹🇷 "Sınırları Aşmak," Esra Talu tarafından yazılan, girişimcilik ve teknoloji yolculuğuna dair ilham verici bir dijital kitaptır. Kitap, Esra'nın 1999'da başlayan ve Türkiye'nin ilk e-ticaret şirketlerinden biri olan Deppo'nun kuruluş hikayesini anlatıyor. Bu hikaye, özellikle o dönemin şartlarında gösterilen olağanüstü vizyonerlikle, bir grup insanın birbirlerine olan inançları ve ortak çabaları üzerine kurulu. Esra, Deppo'nun değerli bir marka olarak nasıl hayata geçirildiğini, yıllar içinde yaşanan değişimleri, yeni yol arkadaşlıklarını ve çekirdek kadronun dağılmasına rağmen şirketin nasıl uzun yıllar başarıyla hizmet verdiğini anlatıyor. 15 yıl sonra Deppo'ya veda ederken, bu deneyimlerin yazıya dökülmesinin önemini vurguluyor. Kitap, girişimci ruha sahip herkese adanmış olup, Esra'nın samimi üslubuyla okuyuculara ilham veriyor. İstanbul'da Ekim 2019'da yayınlanan bu eser, emek verilen her şeyin kalıcı olması dileğiyle sunuluyor.
