The Budapest Economic Forum is traditionally Portfolio’s flagship macroeconomic conference, which will be held for the fifteenth time on 7 October 2025. At the Budapest Economic Forum, we address every issue that currently concerns representatives of the economic and financial sectors, tailoring our programme each year to the hottest topics.
Mainly, Hungarian company leaders, professional investors, and economic and business decision-makers participate in the conference. Each year, the invited speakers include the most renowned domestic and international analysts, experts, economists, and opinion leaders. Attendees can receive up-to-date and reliable information on current global and domestic economic and business developments that impact their companies' operations. Additionally, decision-makers will outline their potential plans, and the October timing is ideal for discussing the 2025 outlook, as with the year-end approaching, the focus increasingly shifts to the following year.
This was the Budapest Economic Forum 2024:
Egyre fogy az idő az év legfontosabb gazdasági csúcstalálkozója előtt, hiszen két hét múlva, október 7-én a budapesti Marriott Hotelben ismét megvitatjuk a magyar gazdaság legfontosabb kérdéseit. Ahogy azt már megszokhatták, idén is velünk lesznek a magyar gazdaságpolitika legfontosabb szereplői, elemzők, közgazdászok, illetve nemzetközi előadókat is elhozunk Budapestre.
Vélhetően a második negyedévben sem robbantotta be a motorokat a magyar gazdaság – emelték ki a Portfolio által megkérdezett elemzők a szerda reggel érkező első adattal kapcsolatban. A szakértők stagnálásra számítanak előzetesen, vagyis még mindig várni kell a kormány által beharangozott repülőrajtra. Az egyetlen pozitívum, hogy talán az újabb recessziót el tudta kerülni a magyar gazdaság, vagyis a kiábrándító évkezdés után nem zsugorodott tovább. Viszont szép lassan a 2026-os kilátások is romlanak, egyre nehezebbnek tűnik a 3%-os növekedés elérése.
A végén kezdve, hogy tényleg beteg-e a magyar gazdaság, nem egyértelmű. Bizonyos, hogy a közvéleményt foglalkoztató gondok listáját gazdasági témák vezetik: az infláció, a bérek és nyugdíjak ügye, megélhetési és lakhatási gondok. Ezek jóval megelőzik a politikai vonatkozásúakat (migráció, háborús veszély). A legtöbbször említett társadalmi bajok (korrupció, egészségügy, oktatás, közlekedési helyzet) a kormányzati prioritásokon túl szintén összefüggnek a gazdasági teljesítménnyel. Az pedig valóban aggasztó.

Professional recognition, community, experience – read what our participants said about us!
"For me, the Portfolio Private Health Forum has been one of the most important professional events of the year for almost a decade. I love coming back year after year because it always offers a rich, topical and thought-provoking programme - whether it's on strategy, innovation or the future of private healthcare. Everyone who matters in the national healthcare sector is truly there and the networking value is invaluable, alongside the technical presentations. Year after year, the organisers are able to innovate, bring fresh topics and create a platform where decision-makers, doctors, investors and providers can have a real dialogue about the future of Hungarian private healthcare."
"We are proud to be a professional partner of the Portfolio Property Investment Forum event in Hungary again this year, which is the most important Hungarian real estate market meeting of the year..."
