The Portfolio Group's Agricultural Sector Conference is already the largest agribusiness event and summit in Hungary in terms of content. The aim of the conference is to summarize and analyze the year's outstanding domestic and international agribusiness events and to provide a forecast for the coming years to help agribusiness players make successful business and investment decisions. The conference offers a three-day professional programme: the event will start with a festive professional evening, followed by two further days of highly complex and exhaustively detailed professional content. The conference will feature top leaders from the national government, banking, corporate and advocacy sectors who will provide first-hand, relevant information that will be useful for all players in the agricultural economy - producers, food manufacturers and traders. It will also provide a wide range of showcasing and market-building opportunities for businesses serving the agricultural sector - input manufacturers, integrators, machinery distributors, finance and other service providers. In addition to a rich programme of events, the conference will provide an opportunity for professional networking, networking and business meetings, with high-quality technical presentations and round-table discussions, and an entertainment programme to keep participants energised and relaxed. The Portfolio Group will present the annual awards in eleven categories at the Agribusiness Conference, which recognize the most outstanding professional achievements and accomplishments in the agribusiness sector. The prizes are awarded by a jury of leading figures in the agricultural sector on the basis of applications submitted by the operators in the sector.

By 2026, energy has become one of the most important strategic areas of economic policy. Competitive pressures in Europe, geopolitical realignment, the green transition, electrification, data-driven operations and regulatory changes are all shaping the sector. These are the questions that Portfolio's autumn energy summit, the Energy Investment Forum 2026, will answer. The all-day event will bring together key decision-makers, investors, regulators and experts from the Hungarian and European energy sector to share their experiences, strategies and forecasts. Be there where the strategic decisions for the coming years will be made!  

Hungary is "back on the European map" after the April parliamentary elections, with the new government promising a more market-friendly economic policy and a more pro-EU foreign policy. This has also been reflected in the strength of the forint and Hungarian government bonds in the markets. The next few years could be a time of rapprochement with Europe and the possible introduction of the euro, which will affect the lives of all economic players. How can companies prepare for the introduction of the euro? What are the challenges for economic policy? How different the economic environment might be if we really do pay in euros - we are looking for answers to all these questions. We look at other countries' experiences of adopting the euro and the lessons and pitfalls that can be learned.
