I double checked on Wiki. There are two founders -- husband and wife. While both have Turkish heritage, only one is a Turkish immigrant. To be fair, I agree with the overall sentiment of your comment!

Husband: Uğur Şahin was born in Turkey, and immigrated to Germany at age 4

Wife: Özlem Türeci was born in Germany. Her parents immigrated to Germany from Turkey.

If anyone is interested to learn more about these amazing scientists, I recommend that you watch the YouTube video where they are interviewed by CEO Mathias Döpfner for one hour after winning the Axel Springer Award in 2021: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4u4JzAZQoc
