The programme has produced hundreds of professionals who now work across Hungary’s cultural and creative sectors, including strategists for Hungarian and international design brands, professionals working in contemporary art galleries, leaders of non-profit initiatives focused on social inclusion, as well as doctoral researchers and university lecturers. Their achievements include curating the Hungarian Pavilion at the Venice Biennale, producing Beton.Hofi’s latest music video, and building the multimedia success of OIEE (Bence Kocsis). Now in its 40th year and 15 years into its MA format – which transitioned to English-language delivery two years ago – MOME’s comprehensivee manager training programme integrates business and artistic expertise, as well as creative and commercial perspectives from the outset.
