Budapest Economic Forum 2026

Budapest Economic Forum 2026

Where is Hungary headed in this new era?

Since the parliamentary elections, it has become perhaps even more important than ever to assess and understand the outlook for the Hungarian economy, as well as the economic policy measures taken so far and those that may be taken in the future, along with the scope for action. What steps is the government planning to take in the coming period? How might these affect the economic outlook and the lives of businesses? What growth model might characterize the Hungarian economy in the coming years? Where will the labor and capital for the economy come from?—we will raise all these questions and piece together the picture with renowned domestic decision-makers and international experts.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      Participation Conditions, Registration Process and Deadline, and Actions in Case of Full Capacity

      We warmly welcome all interested individuals over the age of 16 who are interested in the event's professional program, would like to participate, and are open to meeting new partners and high-quality networking opportunities.

      You can register for our events on the portfolio.hu/rendezvenyek page on the respective event's subpage by clicking the "registration" button. Due to GDPR compliance, we can only admit participants who have registered online in advance or on-site, and (in case of paid events) have a paid ticket to the event area. Online registration is possible until midnight the day before the event; after that, we welcome interested parties on-site, where our colleagues will gladly assist at the registration desk with ticket purchases or, in the case of free events, ticket collection.

      In case of full capacity, registration on the website closes, and you can only join a waiting list. In this case, on-site ticket purchases are also suspended. Our colleagues will notify registered applicants on the list about possible participation opportunities depending on available spots.

      What payment methods are available? Can I pay on-site?

      The participation fee and other costs (room booking, extras, etc.) can be paid by bank transfer or credit card payment during the registration process. It is important to know that in the two days before the event, only credit card payment is available on our website. In the case of paid events, we cannot guarantee participation without payment of the participation fee.

      On the day of the event, bank card payment is also available at the registration desk with the assistance of our colleagues.

      What should I do if I didn't receive the QR code for entry?

      Our system automatically sends the QR code after the payment has been received and accounted for. In case of free participation, the QR code for entry is sent immediately after registration. Please check the spam, social, and other subfolders in your email system as well. The email will arrive with the subject "Entry ticket for (event name)..." from the noreply@portfolio.hu email address.

      If the QR code still hasn't arrived, please check the payment, as the entry QR code is only sent after the participation fee has been paid. After verifying and confirming the payment, please contact our colleagues at rendezveny@portfolio.hu email address. We cannot provide information by phone; in such cases, we can only help in writing.

      For free events, if you still cannot find the QR code after checking all folders, please contact our colleagues by email.

      In case of interrupted card payment, please contact our colleagues at the above-mentioned email address. Upon request, they can issue an invoice or help restart the process.

      What does the ticket include, and does the participation fee cover accommodation?

      Please check the Prices menu for the exact content of the ticket. The ticket price does not include accommodation costs. If the booking option is available at the event, you can select and book accommodation during the registration process.
