Digital Transformation Accounting & Auditing

About Me

Hi, I’m Burak Kanber

I’m a Digital Transformation Specialist working at the intersection of software engineering, industrial IoT, and applied AI — currently contributing to the MATISSE EU Horizon Europe KDT Project at Eskisehir Osmangazi University.

I architect cloud platforms that bring together academic research models — from FMI/FMU co-simulation to ROS 2 telemetry and 3D Digital Twins — into unified, deployable web ecosystems. I also develop real-time computer vision systems (YOLOv8-based defect detection) and coordinate R&D efforts within the EU Horizon Europe programme.

Background

  • M.Sc. in Accounting, Auditing & Tax Applications (Thesis Programme) — Eskisehir Osmangazi University (2025–2027)
    • Thesis: NLP-based greenwashing detection in BIST Sustainability Index corporate reports
  • B.Sc. in Management Information Systems — Bilecik Seyh Edebali University (2015–2020)

I bridge technology and business — my academic work combines software engineering with accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards.
