The MAGYAR FENNTARTHATÓSÁGI KÖZPONT Alapítvány (HUNGARIAN SUSTAINABILITY CENTRE Foundation, MFKA) is an innovative organisation with an international network, committed to advancing sustainability objectives, enterprise development and social cohesion.
As a young organisation, we carry forward a rich legacy. MFKA was established in 2023 by the civil-society founders of the Székesfehérvár Regional Enterprise Development Foundation (RVA), also known as Fejér Enterprise Agency® (FEA®), which was founded in 1991. Our team of experts brings experience from international projects and works to high professional standards.
Our core activities rest on three pillars: supporting the sustainable economic transition; enterprise development and microfinance programmes; and innovation in business development and technology.
