Connectivity
A country that isolates itself from the world, or allows others to isolate it, cannot flourish at all. Therefore, Hungary wants to be open in as many directions as possible, following the practice of connectivity rather than bloc formation—whether it comes to the economy, trade or culture.
The Connectivity Center seeks answers as to why this strategy can be important and beneficial not only for Hungary but also for Europe and the world.
