The Canadian Chamber of Commerce in Hungary, chaired by Nicholas Sarvari, held its 32nd Annual Canadian Lobster Dinner on Saturday, 7 November, bringing together around 200 guests from the Hungarian and international business communities at the InterContinental Budapest.
The Chamber’s largest annual event welcomed company leaders, decision-makers and business partners, including Ambassador Judith Gelbman and guest of honour Dr Judit Zolnay.
As the name suggests, the highlight of the evening was a special dinner featuring whole lobsters brought from Nova Scotia, giving guests a taste of Canada’s Atlantic coast in the Hungarian capital.
Live entertainment, auction and raffle
Beyond the dinner itself, the programme included live music and entertainment, exhibitors, a silent auction and a raffle. Guests had the opportunity to browse the auction items throughout the evening, while Renault provided a dedicated shuttle service for attendees.
The event offered an opportunity for Chamber members, business partners and other guests to meet representatives of different companies and industries, reconnect with familiar faces and establish new professional contacts.
With a more relaxed atmosphere than a traditional business meeting, the dinner allowed guests to continue earlier conversations and build new connections over food and entertainment.
