A significant professional recognition has been awarded to WING, one of the leading real estate developers and investors in Central Europe, and RTL Hungary, one of the largest media companies in Hungary.

A unique pop-up exhibition has been launched at the Liget Center, developed by WING. In collaboration with Art is Business and the architectural firm Paradigma Ariadné, the company has created an architectural history exhibition titled "Modernism in Pieces." This exhibition centers on the former MÉMOSZ headquarters, now serving as RTL's downtown base. Recognized as an outstanding example of Hungarian modernist architecture, the complex was granted heritage protection in 1999. The aim of the organisers is to present the past, present and future of the 75-year-old building through the history of the property, which has undergone an exemplary monument renovation.

One of Hungary's largest commercial TV channels, RTL Hungary, has moved into its new downtown home, Liget Center, developed and owned by WING and located next to the City Park (Városliget), celebrated by an opening ceremony. The reconstruction of the building complex itself is a real estate development feat, as a listed building of outsanding artistic and historical value was reborn in the form of a unique office complex, where WING preserved the original modernist architectural features, while incorporating the latest technology and the special functional needs of RTL's broadcasting activities.

WING celebrated with an extraordinary event: Liberty, one of the country's most modern and ESG-compliant mixed-use complexes, has reached its final stage. The second phase of the project, comprising a total of 20,000 square meters of office space, was inaugurated. The event also included the inauguration of the WING Lemniscate, a contemporary sculpture located between the Telekom Campus and the Liberty building.

Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport will have one more hotel with direct access to the terminal next year, as the 167-room TRIBE Budapest Airport Hotel, another WING project, has reached the stage of structural completion. The new, four-star hotel will be inaugurated in 2025 Q2 and will be located within walking distance of the entrance to Terminal 2. TRIBE Budapest Airport Hotel will be operating in direct connection with the three-star ibis Styles Budapest Airport Hotel, which was opened in 2018. The new hotel will be an important element of the airport's infrastructure expansion programme, intended for both business and leisure travelers.

As a further step in its sustainability efforts, WING has successfully completed its green power purchase, which means that this year, 47% of its entire real estate portfolio's electricity needs will be provided by renewable energy sources generated in Hungary. The milestone covers the entire industrial portfolio - Airport City Business Park, East Gate Business Park, East Gate PRO Business Park and Login Business Park -, as well as the newly completed developments, Liget Center and Liberty office and hotel, which are 100% powered by green electricity this year.

WING is bringing a completely new real estate solution to the market: HOP will be transformed into a technology office park, from now on called HOP Technology Office Park. The real estate developer took into account the ever-changing business and ESG needs of employees and potential tenants for modern offices, as well as the specific technical requirements of technology-intensive companies, resulting in a new kind of downtown campus, both internationally and domestically. The existing buildings in the technology office park, which covers a total of 3 hectares, are now almost entirely occupied, which is a strong market feedback for the real estate developer to start the scheduled realisation of the further development potential of the property (around an additional 40 thousand square metres).

The Liget Center project - developed by WING - , has reached a new milestone: the Liget Center Auditorium has received its occupancy permit; therefore, RTL Hungary is soon to move into its new downtown base next to City Park (Városliget). From this summer, the modernised building will house RTL's news directorate and studios for its news and infotainment programmes.

This year, WING will again support SOS Children’s Villages with HUF 5 million, thereby helping young people in state care to prosper.

One of the focus areas of WING’s corporate social responsibility is supporting young people, both in terms of catching up, equal opportunities, and talent management.

Liget Center Auditorium, a 70-year-old listed building renovated by WING, has been given rating “A” for energy performance. The highest level of energy modernisation is almost unique among historic buildings in the Hungarian office market. WING installed the most energy-efficient systems possible in Liget Center Auditorium, taking into account the characteristics of the monument, the ESG aspects and the special technological needs of RTL Hungary, and thanks to the reconstruction, the building, which has a modern architectural value, was reborn as a nearly zero-energy building.
