Hungary Expands University Startup Programme to Doctoral Students



Hungary is expanding opportunities for university students interested in entrepreneurship and innovation through an extension of the Hungarian Startup University Program (HSUP).

The programme is being expanded to include doctoral students, creating additional opportunities for PhD candidates to develop entrepreneurial skills, explore innovative ideas and connect academic knowledge with real-world applications.

The initiative reflects the growing importance of entrepreneurship within higher education and the role universities can play in supporting innovation, technology development and future-oriented careers.

For postgraduate students, programmes of this kind can provide valuable experience beyond traditional academic study and encourage the development of practical skills needed in research, business and innovation.
