Elsewhere in the Business section, we look at events staged by Roche Hungary and the Hungarian Biotech Association, and the German-Hungarian Chamber of Industry and Commerce.
Our Special Report in this issue focuses on Real Estate Development. In our popular regular Market Talk feature, we take the pulse of the market with several of its leading players: Kata Mazsarof of Colliers Hungary; Marco Nobel of Fuse; Rudolf Nemes of HelloParks; Marius Gomola of Horwath HTL Hungary; Péter Takács of Newmark VLK Hungary; Géza Germán of Óbuda Group; Aurelia Luca of Skanska Commercial Development Europe, and Zsófia Korda of Wing Industrial. We also take an in-depth look at the hotel, industrial and logistics (I&L), office, residential, and retail sectors. Mihály Schrancz, CEO and founder, reviews Realis WAM’s successful asset growth since licensing less than two years ago. Meanwhile, Valter Kalaus, managing partner of Newmark VLK Hungary, shares his take on market sentiment after hearing contrasting views at conferences in Budapest and Munich.
Inside the News section, our regular Macroscope column finds surprisingly positive industrial output figures for August, though they are concentrated in two sectors: automotive and electronics. Dávid Németh of K&H Bank, Orsolya Nyeste of Erste Bank, Gábor Regős of Gránit Alapkezelő, and Péter Virovácz of ING Bank offer us commentary on the figures and their likely causes.
In Socialite, we interview Lehel Kovács, a Hungarian illustrator who regularly contributes to prestigious international publications like The New Yorker, The Observer, and The Economist. We also talk with Australian-Hungarian filmmaker Peter Hegedüs about the film he made about his grandfather, András Hegedüs, Hungary’s Prime Minister from 1955-56.
