A Gulf-based founder lands in Istanbul on a Monday morning with a shortlist of three sectors and one nagging question. Is this the year to commit? Ask ten investors, and you will hear ten answers, but one pattern is hard to miss. More foreign capital is arriving with a plan instead of mere curiosity.
