A new optimum is beginning to emerge in Hungarian healthcare. The private sector has truly found its footing, driven by continuous developments and investments, with an ever‑wider array of specialities and a parallel increase in complexity. At the same time, a recovery in consumer demand—driven by improving consumer sentiment and the easing of inflation—was essential, and it is no less significant that the public healthcare system shows no signs of improvement, prompting growing calls for substantive intervention for a comprehensive reform of Hungarian healthcare. In this context and operating environment, the sector’s most influential players, key opinion leaders, foremost figures, and the leading representatives of the ecosystem surrounding private healthcare companies will convene at the ninth Private Health Forum. Our invited speakers and the hundreds of professional participants will discuss in multiple concurrent sessions, for example, the future direction of the domestic healthcare system, how this will impact the operations of private providers, which segments of the sector could be the relative winners or losers in the coming period, where capacity should be increased, where significant growth potential still exists, and where the market is already saturated and competition is fierce. Naturally, we will also showcase the latest trends and indeed lead the market in these areas by placing a strong emphasis on innovative digital solutions, the importance of prevention, and the shared responsibility of individuals and professionals in maintaining health. This is what Private Health Forum 2025 was like:

This year marks the 21st edition of the Portfolio Property Investment Forum (PIF), the key event where the most influential voices and decision-makers of the Hungarian real estate market come together. With the war still ongoing in our neighbouring country, Trump reshaping the global landscape with enormous momentum, and Hungary's domestic stance and direction requiring constant attention, the world is experiencing extraordinary technological, societal, and economic transformation. But what lies ahead? Has the market regained strength this year? Are we seeing a rebound, or will the wait continue? The new world order that has emerged in recent years has caused serious damage to some sub-markets while other areas have experienced tremendous progress and development. Yet, the transition between the old and new world appears far from over, with power dynamics still in flux. We may be more aware of the real damage and the concrete changes and transformations, but it will be many years (if ever) before we reach a new equilibrium. Rebuilding the market and placing it on new foundations, inserting the new normal remains our task. Nowadays, change should not be seen as a threat but as an opportunity to be seized and leveraged, increasingly supported by fresh knowledge! There could not be a better occasion to create the informational and networking background to successfully develop our company, business model, and investments than a personal meeting where this vibrant, lively market full of professional contacts and friendships, the world of professional real estate practitioners, can come together, shake hands, drink merrily, celebrate again, and, naturally, exchange opinions, debate, and listen to the market’s influencers on the most important professional and business questions for the 21st time now. In 2025, we will once again bring together the most important players in the Hungarian real estate sector at the InterContinental Hotel. The full-day event will offer a comprehensive programme covering a wide range of topics including investments, development, financing, macroeconomic trends, technological innovations, home office trends, operations, retail, hospitality, e-commerce and logistics, the housing market, alternative assets, as well as marketing and digitalisation. Do not miss out on the event of the year! Let us meet again! This Was the Property Investment Forum 2024:

With unwavering momentum and growing interest and participation, we now traditionally host the Sustainable World 2025 conference dedicated to the companies of the future. Six years ago, at the first Sustainable World Conference, the weight and critical role of sustainability efforts and solutions in the economy were observed with curious eyes. By now, however, they have undoubtedly become an integral part of business and corporate strategies. The business world is constantly forced to adapt and innovate in response to challenges such as regulatory changes, geopolitical tensions, transition and physical climate risks, and shifting consumer and investor demands. Quick response, adaptation, and resilience are key concepts that companies have been compelled to experience from multiple perspectives. The maturity of the domestic market is well reflected in the growing number of players who recognise the advantages of being at the forefront of sustainability and approaching the future with a solid foundation. The event has become a primary forum and meeting place for key players in the green industry: those who shape the green economy with a strategic mindset and commitment. The Sustainable World Conference addresses the most pressing industry-specific issues, those that are currently driving discussions among economic players in the fields of ESG and sustainability. The conference’s must-cover topics include ESG – from regulation and reporting to strategic aspects – green financing opportunities, expectations of the financial sector, forward-looking investment decisions, the latest developments in the green energy market, energy efficiency, green transportation, urban planning, and the green building sector. In 2025, the main topics will include sustainable communication, integrating ESG into marketing strategies, and the education of sustainability and ESG experts. We will address changing consumer habits, the transformation of corporate strategies, as well as labour market issues and the green challenges of the manufacturing sector. Cost and energy-efficient operations, increasing competitiveness, sustainability goals and specific actions, as well as the long-term retention of customer and partner trust, provide the unique knowledge and strategy that serve as a "green card" to becoming one of the companies of the future. This was our Sustainable World 2024 conference:  

The next EU budget cycle is not just about technical details of funding allocation — it will fundamentally shape how the EU addresses regional disparities, manages the green and digital transitions, and reinforces solidarity between Member States. At this final event in Brussels, we will present the full package of outcomes from the EUYOU project – including key findings from our survey on cohesion policy and the policy recommendations developed as part of the project. The event will focus on the preparation of the 2028–2034 Multiannual Financial Framework. We will explore how the new cycle could respond to current challenges, reshape the use of cohesion funds, and what kind of political consensus might emerge on how it is implemented. This event is a unique opportunity to meet EU policymakers, policy experts, and researchers in person, and to engage in a dialogue on building a fairer, more efficient and more transparent Europe.

Preparation for the 2028–2034 EU budgetary cycle may introduce new approaches to distributing EU funds. At the heart of the debate lies the strengthened application of the principle of subsidiarity, that is, to what extent it would be more effective to allocate EU funds directly to local actors, primarily municipalities, partially or entirely bypassing the member states as intermediaries. The issue is not merely technical but deeply political: who should exercise control over EU funds, and how can their efficient, transparent, and successful use be guaranteed? At the webinar, renowned experts, representatives of EU institutions, and domestic policymakers will jointly analyse the opportunities inherent in decentralising resource allocation. The discussion will cover the background to the budgetary reform, experiences to date, and proposals related to the preparation of the new MFF. The resource allocation principles of the next EU budgetary cycle will determine the role of local levels in the EU’s development policy. The webinar will help viewers navigate the key subjects of debate surrounding the forthcoming financial framework and provide insight into the potential direction of EU funding policy in the early years of the next decade. The EUYOU project aims to present changes in EU funding policies in an accessible manner, with a particular focus on cohesion policy, the Just Transition Fund, the Technical Support Instrument, and elements of the Next Generation EU programme, including the RRF and REPowerEU.

The experience continues this year! A tradition for the Hungarian real estate market that we brought to life together! We will meet at our Property X event in Balatonfüred for the fourth time now. This year, again we are planning an event that offers strong professional content and is based on our traditional conferences, where meeting, networking, experience and a good atmosphere will all have the main role. All this is spiced up with an evening programme and extra networking possibilities on the shore of Lake Balaton. But we are not only combining professional content and the most important actors of the domestic real estate market with the representatives of the financing sector and the building industry which are closely connected to the market as a whole in a three-day event, but the classic city-centre conference with a more open, more bustling space and design which focus more on the partners and customers. What is X? The world’s real estate market is going through turbulent times and historical changes; there are so many novelties, information, regulations, tasks, difficulties, risks and challenges to which the response must be comprehensive and complex. Property X creates a platform for this, where a holistic aspect will prevail throughout the whole event. We are discussing burning topics such as the tasks of the energy crisis and greening bursting into the lives of almost every market player, the freshest trends and experiences of traditional and flexible office solutions, operation solutions, or X-industrial areas such as financing and the construction industry’s impact and views on the domestic real estate market. Participate in this exclusive professional and networking event that will bring together sectors and the world of real estate where you can meet your current and future professional and business partners in a special environment. An eXtra dress code comes with the conference experience; we expect our guests to wear ‘summer business casual’ clothing.
