Three Alumnae Featured in the Forbes Power Women Next List

Based on the editorial team’s subjective judgment, experience, and professional network, Forbes has, for the first time, put together the Power Women Next list, showcasing inspiring Hungarian women. Three alumnae who graduated from Corvinus are also featured. 

Among them, Viktória Környei earned her degree in marketing at Corvinus. The idea for the Kikapcs Foundation was born during a university class together with a fellow student, Luca Bárdió. They established the foundation to ensure that families raising children with special needs do not become isolated within society. They support these families through therapeutic development programs, counselling, and even by contributing to the costs of family holidays. Viktória is also the founder of Running Latte Club, a community running initiative combined with coffee meet-ups. 

Dorka Takácsy, a Russia expert, is currently a PhD student at the university. Before Corvinus, she studied in Moscow and Washington, and alongside her doctoral studies she works for the Brussels-based European External Action Service (EEAS).  

Ágnes Czakó studied in the capital markets and corporate finance major, as well as in the business valuation and equity analysis minor, at Corvinus. She has been working at OTP Fund Management since 2009, first as an equity analyst, and later she was entrusted with managing equity funds investing in the Central and Eastern European region. Ágnes regularly encourages young women interested in investment careers to trust their knowledge and to dare to enter a profession that is still considered predominantly male.
