Portfolio Digital Compliance 2026
3rd March 2026
Radisson Blu Béke Hotel
Budapest
Compliance professionals face ever-changing challenges in their organisations. This is often an unpopular role, as new regulations, new technology trends and dynamic market expectations require a company's organisation and operations to constantly adapt. The effectiveness of adaptation directly affects competitiveness. It is now clear that the compliance profession is multidisciplinary: in addition to legal knowledge, it requires business, communication and technological competences. Artificial intelligence is also a powerful tool for managing change, as it is obviously not a substitute for experts, but it is a tool that allows for faster, more accurate and more efficient compliance. So the compliance professional of the future will not just react to change, but will turn it into a strategic advantage by leveraging the support of smart technologies. This year, AI will also be at the heart of the conference in the sense that AI is creating new markets and has transformed business models in almost every market: this presents new business opportunities and new compliance challenges. Every year at the Compliance Professionals Annual Spring Conference, we provide new examples of how compliance with external and internal regulations can not only avoid risks and fines, but can also provide significant market advantage. Companies that operate transparently and legally are more likely to build trust with their customers, partners and investors, which has a direct impact on long-term success and profit growth. In 2026, Portfolio and Wolters Kluwer will once again jointly organise a conference where we will explore the most topical issues in the key legal and regulatory areas that shape the way companies operate in the digital space. The technical programme and networking opportunities will provide participants with an excellent opportunity to learn about the business opportunities and risks of the future.
Retail Day 2026
4th March 2026
Radisson Blu Béke Hotel
Budapest
For the retail sector, 2026 will mark a new turning point: while consumer habits and expectations are constantly changing, the macroeconomic environment, regulatory changes and technological innovations will also fundamentally reshape the industry. It is no longer a question of whether to adapt, but how and how fast players can turn this into a competitive advantage. The new economy is also changing the global economy, changing macroeconomic and regulatory trends, and the changing business environment. The Portfolio Retail Day 2026 aims to be a meeting point for key decision-makers, managers and professionals in the retail market, not only to look at the challenges of today, but also to seek answers to the questions that will shape the future. The 2026 event will continue to take a cross-sectoral approach, with players from FMCG, fashion, fuel retail, e-commerce and luxury goods sharing their experiences across a range of segments. The event will also take a cross-sectoral approach in 2026. At 2026, special attention will be paid to improving the omnichannel customer experience, the practical application of Retail Tech - especially Artificial Intelligence - and optimising and making supply chains sustainable. Other important topics will include mapping new consumer journeys, the impact of digital sales models and the platform economy, as well as labour market changes, organisational culture renewal and new directions in retail leadership. A new focus will also look at the full spectrum of the manufacturing and supply chain - from raw material sourcing to product introduction - as competitiveness is increasingly determined by the efficiency of the underlying processes. Portfolio Retail Day 2026 will offer more than just a conference: it will provide an unrivalled opportunity to network, inspire and share industry knowledge. Whether it's a physical store network, e-commerce or a hybrid model, this event is for those who want to not only survive, but thrive and lead the next era of retail.
Green Transition & ESG 2026
5th March 2026
Radisson Blu Béke Hotel
Budapest
Green transition, but how? The picking of the lowest hanging fruit is over for most companies aiming for a sustainability transition, but what's next? How can new practices or compliance with ever-changing ESG considerations be integrated into day-to-day operations? The Portfolio Green Transition & ESG is a practice-oriented conference, which aims to share solutions, best practices or even current obstacles to sustainability among the most committed business players, even those at the beginning of their journey. Interests are shared and implementation is easier, more cost-effective and faster through collaboration and knowledge sharing. As part of this, balancing current relevant regulations, funding opportunities, ESG criteria, reporting and real-world practices will be highlighted in the first half of the conference. While the other half of the event will focus on practical issues such as harnessing different technologies, AI or digitalisation in the transition, energy efficient or circular practices, and dealing with suppliers, consumers and your own employeesin the process of innovating and adopting sustainability.

Portfolio Insurance 2026
17th March 2026
Marriott Hotel, Budapest
Budapest
The Hungarian insurance market will reach a turning point in 2026: the transformation of the regulatory environment, the final phase of the implementation of the Ethical 2.0 framework, and the rapid advance of technology and AI-based innovations represent both a major challenge and a new growth opportunity. The strategic directions of the government and the MNB - including the introduction of individual TKM, the higher return potential expectation of unit-linked recommendation, and the full implementation of product supervision rules - are strongly shaping the life insurance market. The conference will also focus on the experience and expectations of the March home insurance campaign, pricing and mobility trends shaping the future of motor insurance, and the practical challenges of digital and AI-driven solutions such as automated claims settlement, personalised pricing and cyber compliance. 2026 will also be a defining year for vendors and intermediaries as digitisation, regulatory expectations and changing customer needs demand a new operating model. The conference's panel discussions, presentations and interactive programmes will provide practical guidance on how to create more transparent, customer-centric sales, manage the transformation of intermediary channels and identify new business opportunities. In keeping with Portfolio's tradition, the event will explore issues relevant not only to insurers, but also to insurance intermediaries, brokers, legal and consulting firms, IT service providers and other suppliers, while providing an excellent networking platform for industry players to inform strategic decisions in 2026.

The AI revolution is not yet over, it is just getting started: the first enterprise GenAI solutions and tools to support work and internal processes are ready and performing in real life. Almost everyone has done the obligatory homework, but the work and the real AI transformation is just beginning. Beyond the still-isolated AI solutions that have emerged from the Proof of Concept phase, the brave pioneers can now move to a new level: once AI is proven, it is time to extend and educate well-performing AI solutions to the entire organisation, there will be where the transformation of the core business, the complete transformation of the core business, can take place. We will spend a full conference day looking at what changes AI will bring to business. Instead of side-talk, we'll showcase business strategies, real-world solutions, AI adoption methods and use cases in workshops, technology deep dive sessions, expert presentations and panel discussions.
