Competitiveness Survey of Small Enterprises in Hungary

György Kadocsa

from Óbuda University, Keleti Faculty of Business and Management

Abstract: Our assumptions made on the basis of an incomplete evaluation of the completed questionnaires that have been returned reflect our very first impressions.During the survey, businesses considered developments in the business environment as definitely favourable. In addition to reporting increasing uncertainty, they deemed Hungary’s political climate, domestic markets and social changes as having marked effects. One and a half years after Hungary’s accession to the European Union, SMEs cannot perceive major impacts of accession, or blame the prevailing political situation for all changes. Small businesses do not capitalize on the opportunities offered by the European Union, and do not make efforts to apply for EU grants and funds, or attempt to penetrate new markets.
