Investor Relations & Capital Introduction in Budapest

Budapest is the capital of Hungary and the centre of nearly all Hungarian venture activity. For founders in software, cybersecurity, financial technology and life sciences, it offers strong engineering talent, major corporate partners and a startup community built around international customers.

Why Budapest Matters for Capital Raising

The Budapest Stock Exchange was founded in 1864, and the city is home to OTP Bank, MOL and the pharmaceutical company Gedeon Richter, three of Central Europe's largest companies.

Budapest produced internationally successful software companies such as Prezi, founded in 2009, and many Hungarian startups serve customers outside Hungary from the start.

Budapest's universities, including the Budapest University of Technology and Economics, supply strong engineering talent at costs well below Western European levels.

What Budapest Investors Examine
