The HDC is an advisory body that monitors and evaluates the economic importance and development of Hungarian design and makes proposals for government strategy.

It organises Budapest Design Week and awards a number of professional prizes.

The HFDA said it was taking over the HDC’s operation with the aim of boosting the efficiency of the state infrastructure serving to develop Hungary’s creative industries.

HFDA aims to “rethink” the HDC, building on a solid professional foundation and make better use of creative industry synergies to boost economic performance, it added.

The HDC will be chaired by the head of the HFDA who will also pick its members.

HFDA said the organisation of its 360 Design Budapest event would be integrated with that of Budapest Design Week.
