Now in its eighth edition, the event served as a key meeting point for enhancing trade cooperation between Chinese and Central European businesses. Beyond business, the fair also enriched the visitor experience with cultural programmes, fostering dialogue and value exchange between the two regions. Admission was free but required prior registration, and thanks to Yadea, attendees could test-drive electric scooters. Two vehicles from the Chinese car brand Leapmotor were also on display.

The fair aligns with the Hungarian government’s “Opening to the East” policy, which seeks to deepen ties with China and boost economic cooperation between Europe and Asia. Today, Hungary stands as one of China’s most important European partners and has become the top destination for Chinese investment in Europe — a trend supported by high-profile events like the China Brand Fair, which provides an influential platform for Chinese companies to showcase their capabilities and engage in bilateral business talks in Budapest.
