Hanzade Dogan Boyner is finding the task of building a Turkish e-commerce giant less daunting than running the country’s largest newspaper group.

With Goldman Sachs Group Inc. fielding bids for her company that could lead to Turkey’s largest technology deal, Dogan Boyner is free to instead focus her efforts on building her site, Hepsiburada.com, she said in her first interview with foreign media since leaving the embattled conglomerate founded by her father, the octogenarian billionaire Aydin Dogan.
