For the 200th anniversary of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences (MTA), a celebratory event series is being produced. On January 5 2026, researchers of HUN-REN SZTAKI also presented at MTA's "Artificial intelligence through the lense of mathematics" event.

In his presentation titled “The Next Key Step in Green Energy Is Investment in Battery Storage,” Minister Nagy emphasized that in the future, global competitiveness will depend not only on tax systems but also on who has access to available and affordable energy.

On November 11, 2025, at the Forbes Tech Summit business festival held at ETELE Cinema, HUN-REN SZTAKI’s drawing robot and Spot robot dog were both available for visitors to try out, and Deputy Director for Organizational Development Bálint Vanek participated in the panel discussion titled “The Future of Aviation.”

HUN-REN SZTAKI, which is also responsible for the implementation of the COPROLOGS project, was represented at the Science Expo held between October 28 and 30, 2025, in Building D of the Millenáris in Budapest. At the centrally located HUN-REN stand in the exhibition area, visitors could explore research on biological aging supported by artificial intelligence, as well as an installation created at the intersection of AI and art.

The HunCERTalks meetup held on October 15, 2025, at HUN-REN SZTAKI addressed key challenges in industrial cybersecurity, lessons learned from real-world projects, the convergence (or lack thereof) of IT and OT environments, and what it is like for a company to experience an actual cyberattack.

Researchers from HUN-REN SZTAKI also took part in the closing event of the Neumann Technology Festival’s “Every Business Should Have Its Own Website” program on September 25, 2025, held at the Europa Event Center in Budapest.

A HUN-REN SZTAKI is csatlakozott a SmartMan Fest országos programsorozathoz, és három alkalommal is megnyitotta kapuit, hogy a látogatók fejlett gyártási és MI megoldásokkal, robotokkal ismerkedhessenek.

The robot was shaking hands, waving, and even taking a wallet from a robot dog, in front of an applauding audience. HUN-REN SZTAKI's Researcher's Night event was also visited by the president and CEO of HUN-REN, respectively.

A főként diákokból álló csoport nem csak az Innovációs és Demonstrációs Tér kutatói demonstrációival és robotjaival ismerkedett meg, de találkoztak a HUN-REN SZTAKI kutatási platformként használt robotkutyájával is.
