Transforming Government since 2001
Hungary’s information and communications technology (ICT) sector could double exports of software and services in 5 years, the general secretary of the ICT association IVSZ said on Friday.

The sector exported software and services worth 300 billion forints (EUR 955m) in 2014, Gabor Major told MTI.

On the other hand, he listed factors hindering growth in the ICT sector such as the ten thousand unfilled vacancies.

Major also noted the absence of progressive ICT regulation and a supportive environment. He said telecommunication access fees are the highest in Hungary among EU member states, and noted high special sectoral taxes and frequency fees.

The general secretary noted that funding earmarked for developing the digital economy reaches 136 billion forints in the next EU budget period, and almost 100 billion forints is expected to be spent on establishing the e-government in Hungary.
