The award is the most prestigious recognition to be given by the Minister of Finance on ministerial level for outstanding excellence and contribution to the Hungarian economy.

Egis tied as the most popular employer for science students and young graduates and early-stage professionals, found a new study analysing the preferences of young employees and graduates in Hungary.

As research and development are fundamental pillars of our strategy Egis is deeply committed to raise students’ interest in science and help the promising young minds develop their talents.
