We work closely.
We think big.
An independent full-service advertising agency bringing together strategy, creativity and execution since 2011.
We listen to you and own your goals.
We see the bigger picture and discover opportunities together.
We bring ideas to life and work with results in mind.
From 2011 to today.
İlay was founded in Istanbul in 2011. Our journey began with destination marketing, election campaigns, culture and arts projects, and corporate communication work. We designed communication for cities, projects and ideas together with municipalities, governorships, universities and various public institutions; in the private sector, we carried out long-term work with brands of different scales and sectors.
Over the years we gained experience across disciplines such as brand strategy, corporate identity, advertising, architectural design, exhibitions and organization, and photo and film production. As the communication world moved into digital, we transformed the way we work too — social media, digital marketing, web design and software became a natural part of our production capability.
Today, İlay is an independent full-service advertising agency that brings together 15 years of experience with strategy, creativity, design, technology and production. We keep up with changing channels and technologies; but one thing has stayed the same since the day we started: we look at every job by first searching for the right idea.
