The pharmaceutical industry plays a key role in the Hungarian economy’s change of dimension.

The inspiring work environment of Egis Trade Centre, located on Lehel Street, won the Office of the Year campaign’s annual award in the category of Community Space of the Year.

Egis Pharmaceutical PLC’s Senior pharmaceutical sales rep participated very successfully at Medigames.

The quality of life of millions depends on the availability of our medicines. Egis is one of the leading generic pharmaceutical companies in Central Easter Europe.

WHO has created a six-step protocol: by applying this method, we can remove the germs, viruses, and bacteria from the surface of our hands.

According to our mission, we serve people with all of our skills, so that they can live a long and healthy life. That is why we chose to support the comprehensive nationwide screening program as a Golden Sponsor in 2019.

The Semmelweis University and Egis Pharmaceuticals PLC have agreed on an even closer cooperation than before. Our common goal is to further raise the standards of pharmaceutical R+D as well as pharmacist and doctor training by making use of the synergies in each other’s activities. As a result of the agreement, new health industrial innovations can be launched and the Semmelweis University can be extended with more practical educational and training elements that also meet the needs of the Hungarian pharmaceutical industry.

Towards the end of a year that brought many challenges along, affecting everyone around the globe, our successes and milestones seem to be of even more significance: to commemorate Egis’ 20th anniversary in the Southeast Asian country with an article, I arranged a meeting - virtually, of course - with General Manager Miklós Szabó to learn more about the background, the past and present of our Vietnamese branch.

In close cooperation with our employees, we're currently working on redesigning our protective clothing.
