Manager of the Year Awards Gala

The Hungarian Managers' Association is organizing the Manager of the Year Awards Gala for the 30th time—one of the most prestigious social events in the business world.

For three decades, the Association has been honoring exceptional leaders who set an example not only through their business achievements but also with their value-based mindset, social responsibility, and innovative contributions. The Manager of the Year Award, protected by trademark, has become one of the most prestigious accolades in the Hungarian economy.The grand, celebratory award ceremony will be enriched by a unique artistic program.

Taking the stage will be the internationally acclaimed Recirquel Cirque Danse company—currently preparing the largest immersive production in Europe—alongside young piano virtuoso Péter Buka, and the mesmerizing performers of the Hungarian National Ballet.

The stage program will conclude with an exclusive reception, where guests will enjoy exceptional gastronomic experiences in the lavish halls and terraces of the OPERA. Hungary’s top restaurants and patisseries will present their signature dishes and dessert specialties, complemented by the gala’s official champagne, Moët & Chandon.

Framing the gala in style, a festive opening reception and the Manager of the Year After Party will be held on the terrace of the W Budapest Hotel, located across from the prestigious Hungarian State Opera House—one of the city’s most exclusive venues.

The jubilee gala of the Hungarian Managers' Association is not only a tribute to outstanding leaders, but also a unique meeting point for key players in the business world, as well as lovers of culture and gastronomy.
