Wuhu as a Testing Ground
The iCAUR 2026 Business Summit is about far more than the unveiling of a new model: it speaks to the global ambitions of China’s auto industry, the growing weight of REEV strategy, and a new language of brand-building.
The Red Foundation of Hungarian Cuisine: Ground Paprika
If we want to understand the past of Hungarian cuisine and the present that follows from it, it is worth beginning with the ingredient that has perhaps left the deepest mark on it. Ground paprika is not merely a spice: it lives in our language, our moods, and our kitchen instincts as well. One need only think of expressions such as “don’t get all peppered up” or “the atmosphere is quite paprikás.” Few ingredients have become so naturally embedded in everyday Hungarian self-image.
“A Successful Opening to the East?”
The End of Hungary’s “Opening to the East”. For years, Viktor Orbán’s government sold the East as Hungary’s economic future and the West as a fading dependency. But the trade numbers never supported the fantasy and after Tisza’s landslide victory, the political system that sustained it may be starting to collapse as well.
The “Cserdi Model”
In Central and Eastern Europe, the question of social inclusion has remained a recurring policy challenge for decades. In communities facing structural disadvantage, interventions are often built around external programmes, financial support, and institutional solutions. Less often do initiatives emerge that seek to produce lasting change at the local level by relying on internal resources and community-based agency.

The Modern “Attic Sweep”
Historical vulnerability does not return in the same form, but regulatory uncertainty, fragile trust, and the erosion of long-term predictability can once again become a familiar social experience.
How Is the Ministry’s Seaport Burning Through Billions?
The port project in Trieste is being overseen not by the transport or economic ministry, but by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (KKM). Since then, the state-run structure has produced three loss-making companies, operating costs worth billions of forints, and an investment project that keeps slipping year after year.
Chery’s Battery Bet: Solid-State Ambition and China’s EV Power Race
Solid-state batteries are still more industrial challenge than finished breakthrough. But Chery’s latest push shows how Chinese carmakers are trying to turn battery chemistry, manufacturing, safety, and green production into a single competitive system.
Hungary – Justice or Promise?
Post-transition compensation was not merely an economic issue, but also a test of trust, self-determination, and the promise of historical redress. In Hungary, however, the gap between legal settlement and the social sense of justice quickly gave way to disillusionment.
