Startups.hu is currently tracking 79 Hungarian tech startups, and 44 related
investments. We are also tracking the economic profile of these Hungarian startups,
which we plan to release as annual reports. Feel free to use our data, and remember
to credit the site as your source.
Startups.hu was established in an effort to build an extensive database of Hungarian
startups, their economic performance, and the hard working entrepreneurs behind
them. We want the site to become the source of an informed overview of the startup
ecosystem in Hungary.
Our goal is to make the Hungarian startup ecosystem transparent and predictable,
thus more attractive for international venture capital.
