In 2017, Széchenyi István University won HUF 1 billion 820 million in European Union funding for the energy development of its sites in Győr. Of these, the administrative building has already been modernized, while other buildings featuring in the tender will be renovated this year and next.

At the joint Demo Day of the Startup Campus and Széchenyi István University in Győr, of the three startups that reached the final, the jury found two ideas worth investing in. The winners each received HUF 20 million from Hiventures Zrt., part of the MFB Group, and Quantum Leap Kft.

The past period has been difficult, but you did not give up, you worked hard and you have completed your studies. Now Győr will always be your second home,” – with these words Dr Péter Földesi, Rector of Széchenyi István University, greeted the newly graduated international students at a ceremony in their honour.
