Additional information on the Automotive Hungary 2025:

The event, which plays an important role both in Hungary and in the region, will bring together industry and vehicle industry players again this May, creating a unique forum for business decision-makers and qualified professionals to meet and, by building new business relationships or rethinking existing ones, jointly find solutions to the challenges currently affecting the sector.

The co-exhibitions acts as an “engine” and contributes to boosting economic life, since the participating small, medium and large companies, as well as the visitors present at the exhibition, can think together about professional issues in one place and at the same time.

Here, manufacturers, service providers, traders and the customer base are in one place, so the dialogue and the business relationship can start, so that together, within the framework of some kind of cooperation, they can stay on their feet in the market.
