"Growing up, I spent my afternoons after school in the conference room of KNP LAW, and it feels surreal to be back after planning this moment for so many years. I am thrilled to be in the city, the amazing Palazzo Hunyadi where KNP moved last year and surrounded by the historical Buda Castle area. It is a true privilege to work with such an amazing and motivated team," Koppány said about his relocation to Hungary.
