Hungarian Summit 2026
Together for America 250 — Beyond Borders, Beyond Formats
Hungarian Summit 2026 is different—by design.
Many of you asked: when is the next Summit, and what will it look like? This year, we’re expanding beyond a single conference day into a connected program series, aligned with the historic America 250 milestone.
Our flagship networking moment is dedicated to the Hungarian-American Coalition’s America 250 Super Gala, taking place on April 27, 2026 at the Library of Congress (Washington, D.C.)—a signature gathering where relationships, recognition, and transatlantic collaboration come together.
But that’s only the beginning. Throughout 2026, you’ll find Hungarian Summit touchpoints across business, education, community, culture, and sport—each designed to open doors and strengthen U.S.–Hungarian and U.S.–CEE connections.

We are planning an unforgettable program with special invited guests representing the very best of Hungarian-American achievement—names such as Charles Simonyi and Nobel Laureate Katalin Karikó have been part of the Hungarian-American story we celebrate, alongside Hungary-connected astronaut milestones and a lineup of featured voices to be announced.
