The Kautz Conference on Business and Economics, held between 10 and 12 October, brought together researchers from twenty-one countries from four continents to present their work on global challenges and to develop academic links.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How can current global challenges be transformed into development opportunities? This was the question addressed by the participants of the international conference organised by the Kautz Gyula Faculty of Economics at Sz\u00e9chenyi Istv\u00e1n University. The three-day programme covered a wide range of business, economic and tourism topics, with a special focus on the corporate sector and the economic development of a technology-driven world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Kautz conference brought together researchers from twenty-one countries on four continents, representing institutions such as the Universities of Rhode Island and Central Florida from the US, Bournemouth University from the UK, Nanjing Tech University from China, North West University from South Africa and Mahidol University International College from Thailand.&nbsp;The event was attended not only by higher education institutions but also by research centres. The 230 participants were able to learn about the latest research in the field through 170 presentations in 16 sessions. Topics included human resource management, tourism and hospitality, and corporate communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr Eszter Luk\u00e1cs, Vice-President for International Affairs and Strategic Relations of Sz\u00e9chenyi University, said at the opening ceremony, &#8222;<em>This year, our University is organising three prestigious conferences of high importance. The first one took place in mid-summer and focused on important areas such as future energy systems, applied biotechnology and material strength. This year&#8217;s Kautz Conference on Business and Economics is the second in a series, while our Conference on Sustainability &#8211; now in its second year &#8211; will take place in November.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr Luk\u00e1cs added that she was extremely pleased to see such a large and diverse community of researchers attending the event.\u00a0<em>&#8222;The strategic goal of our University is to increase our scientific output, which is important for our position in international academic rankings, but more importantly, it is the basis for the scientific development of our staff. That is why we are striving to develop our knowledge in international research networks,&#8221;<\/em>\u00a0she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/alumni.sze.hu\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image-9-1024x683.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8210\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alumni.sze.hu\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image-9-1024x683.png 1024w, https:\/\/alumni.sze.hu\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image-9-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/alumni.sze.hu\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image-9-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/alumni.sze.hu\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image-9-18x12.png 18w, https:\/\/alumni.sze.hu\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image-9.png 1386w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>Dr Eszter Luk\u00e1cs, Vice President for International and Strategic Relations of Sz\u00e9chenyi Istv\u00e1n University at the opening of the conference (Photo: M\u00e1t\u00e9 Dud\u00e1s)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>On behalf of the Kautz Gyula Faculty of Business and Economics, Dr S\u00e1ndor Remsei, Dean of the Faculty, welcomed the participants. &#8222;This event is the most important event of the year for our faculty.
