Hungary was voted one of the best meeting destinations in Europe. Our country improved its position on the basis of the results of seventy-five qualitative indicators.

Hungary has been ranked among the most attractive scientific and business event destinations in Europe, according to the annual MTLG (Meeting Experience Index) methodology, which is the benchmark for the conference industry, turizmusonline.hu reports. In the XL category, Budapest scored 4.55 out of a maximum of 5, according to a newly published report by the international MTLG.
