Budapest, February 25, 2025 \u2013 The Business Council for Sustainable Development in Hungary (BCSDH) elected its leadership for another three-year term at its renewal General Assembly. Attila Chik\u00e1n Jr. has led the four-member Board for nine years, during which time nearly 90 new companies joined the organization. Today, BCSDH represents 150 companies that generate nearly 40% of Hungary\u2019s GDP, making it a key player in the field of sustainability. The newly re-elected president will work alongside an expanded five-member Board. The re-elected members include Zsolt Jamniczky, Deputy CEO of E.ON Hung\u00e1ria, Zolt\u00e1n Gazsi, Manager of Eisberg Hungary, and Gr\u00e9ta Nagy, Managing Director of Dandelion Ltd.

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cThe current geopolitical and policy landscape presents significant challenges for both sustainability and businesses<\/strong>. As climate change accelerates, the negative impacts are also intensifying\u2014we cannot bury our heads in the sand. The level of mitigation we achieve, the conditions we must adapt to, and the costs and damages we face all matter greatly. Immediate action is required. If no one else takes the lead, companies must spearhead systemic change and take the necessary steps. At BCSDH, we are acting accordingly,\u201d <\/em>said Attila Chik\u00e1n Jr., BCSDH\u2019s newly re-elected president,<\/strong> in his review of the past three years. \u201cOur organization is on the right path\u2014BCSDH has become an essential player in the business world when it comes to sustainability. Not only has our recognition grown significantly, but our activities also have an increasingly widespread impact. Over the past years, our organization has gained significant visibility and recognition among the public and policymakers due to our professional activities and successful communication.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

BCSDH aims to introduce more companies to sustainable business practices and encourage action.<\/strong> Over the past decade, it has hosted nearly 500 professional events, engaged nearly 300 corporate leaders in its initiatives, and showcased nearly 200 business practices that provide real solutions to sustainability challenges. The Circular Economy Platform reached 102 members last year and<\/strong> has been doing invaluable work. Additionally, the Net Zero Advisory Board<\/strong>, established in 2021, brings together outstanding representatives from regulatory, scientific, and business sectors committed to sustainability, helping to accelerate Hungary\u2019s transition to carbon neutrality by 2050.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is a great honor for us that our \u2018Future Leaders\u2019 program received the national award in the \u2018Encouraging the Sustainable Transition\u2019 category of the European Enterprise Promotion Awards (EEPA) in 2024,\u201d<\/em> added Ir\u00e9n M\u00e1rta, Executive Director of BCSDH.<\/strong> \u201cSo far, 348 talented leaders have participated in our \u2018Future Leaders\u2019 program, while more than 290 experts from civil, scientific, and corporate sectors have joined our Action 2020 and Time to Transform 2030 Hungary programs.\u201d <\/em>For the eighth time, the Sustainable Future Award\u2014established in 2017\u2014was presented, recognizing outstanding corporate, leadership, and personal achievements in sustainability.<\/p>\n

While the ESG working group and new ESG training programs help member companies understand environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) information, BCSDH also showcases corporate sustainability initiatives as a permanent invitee to the National Council for Sustainable Development (NFFT). These efforts now extend far beyond reducing greenhouse gas emissions\u2014the Hungarian business sector is increasingly focused on sustainability challenges such as biodiversity conservation and reducing social inequalities, recognizing that there is no business or future without nature and people.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cLooking ahead, we must shift our ambitions and actions into a higher gear at both the corporate and national levels. We cannot afford to let geopolitical tensions divert our focus. At BCSDH, we are committed to continuing and strengthening our work with the same determination in the coming years,\u201d <\/em>emphasized Attila Chik\u00e1n Jr.<\/strong> \u201cWe are in the era of action. Our goal is to further reinforce BCSDH\u2019s leadership role as the voice of responsible and proactive businesses. We will continue supporting our member companies in achieving their ambitious, science-based sustainability goals. Together with them, our shared objective is to deliver measurable results by 2030.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Both the newly elected Board and Supervisory Board members expressed their strong commitment to supporting BCSDH with their expertise, insights, and efforts, helping companies take the necessary steps in sustainability, accelerate systemic change, and initiate truly value-creating processes\u2014whether these concern ESG, climate goals, and adaptation, or the circular economy.<\/p>\n
