Throughout the 17th and 19th centuries, Hungary was one of Europe’s most important wine producers but the 1880s Phylloxera, the two world wars and 45 years of communist rule have put Hungary, as an important part of the world’s wine production, in the shadow for many years. With this wine tasting we would like to show that Hungarian wine is much more than it is normally expected of it in Norway!

Business Conference in Budapest
2018-09-12 08:00 - 2018-09-15 17:00
HNCC has recently been organized a business trip to Budapest. Our goal with the business trip was to get HNCC members to know each other and to find eventually interesting business opportunities or business partners in Hungary/Norway. The business forum was held at Oppenheim Law Firm’s offices in Ybl Palace, downtown Budapest, with about 30 participants who could listen to a number of informative lectures on how to do business in Norway and in Hungary, on export/import, on tourism and on current and mid-term economic situation of Hungary. HE. Olav Berstad, the norwegian ambassador to Hungary also gave a lecture. The Chamber also assisted members in partner searches and in organizing personal business meetings. So all our members had the opportunity to find relevant partners for efficient and fast business development. However, the trip was not just about business, but also about visiting some interesting historical places not only in Budapest (besides sightseeing at Pest and Buda, touring to the marvellous building of the Parliament), but also in the countryside: Pannonhalma, Gödöllő and Eger. Experiencing flavours of Hungarian culinary art and viticulture also formed part of the program:)
