Introduction Baranya, Hungary’s southernmost county is a medium sized administrative unit of the country with a With its plains and hills, rivers (the Danube and the Drava), countless streams and artificial lakes, it is one of the most diverse counties in Hungary. Due to its natural conditions, mineral resources and multi-ethnic

population, Baranya belonged to the most developed areas in the past.

The economic changes in the past 25 years were not beneficial to Baranya County. Large capital was rarely invested in the county, which had an adverse transport network for a long time. The stagnation of not only in the relative but, in certain years, also the actual deterioration of the situation of people living here. Several local organizations intended to reverse the negative processes. They were seldom productive;

the agriculture and the construction industry resulted

however, but some of the initiatives have proved to be successful. Beside programs with a spectacular start, negative processes, which have prevented real breakthroughs, have also emerged. One of the reasons for this may be the insufficient knowledge of local conditions that is why we considered it important to administrative units. This resource map primarily presents the diversity and qualifications of the population living here, shows the present conditions and opportunities of education and training, and describes the condition of business and agricultural infrastructure.

BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT

Baranya County belongs to the underdeveloped areas in terms of its GDP per capita. The county value is only two thirds of the national average. If data are calculated without the value of Budapest, the county figure appears to be better (88%). However, this just reveals the extent to which regions are lagging behind Budapest. The situation is far more disadvantegous if the data are compared to the European Union average. The GDP per capita in purchasing power is only 44% of the EU-28 average.

SUPPLIER CAPACITIES Machinery Manufacturing Industry The machinery manufacturing industry is traditionally a diversified key sector, which has firm professional grounds (and history) in Baranya County. There are approximately 300 Hungarian and foreign SMEs working in this industry.

The South West Hungarian Engineering Cluster (www.ddgk.hu) is an Accredited Innovation Cluster, which is also entitled to use the international „Bronze Label” qualification. Members cover a comprehensive scale of engineering activities using state-of the art technologies including CNC technology, sheet metal working, metal cutting, water jet cutting and metalworking. Enterprises with all the required technological standards and ISO qualifications are suppliers to the automotive, engineering and steel structure industries. 50-80% of their revenue is generated by export activities. The Faculty of Engineering and Information Technology of the University of Pécs has laboratory capacity and a development center for innovative electrical technologies and mechanical engineering.

Technologies, activities and qualifications used by engineering enterprises CNC technologies (milling, machine cutting, sheet metal working, machining, horizon lathe, turning, grinding, top grinding), tap welding, edge bending, surface treatment technologies, machining, injection moulding technologies, rolling, hydrogen-powered fuel cell technologies, heat treatment, industrial welding technologies (CO, inert gas,GMAW, SAW, MIG, TIG, AWI, WIG), laser, plasma and flame cutting, laser engraving, mechanical machining and cold forming, robotic welding, deburring, computer-aided design andwater jet cutting.

Food Industry The food industry in the county is closely related to food production, agro-innovation (manufacture of agricultural equipment) and agro-trading. The aim of the majority of the local Hungarian food production and agro-enterprises is to implement sustainability both in production and consumption. Local developments cover the Research+Development+Innovation (RDI) of the full food production chain. The goal of the food industry projects is to establish a short food chain both in space and time that keeps the biological value and promotes the creation of local brands, whereby not only local points of sales are created but export opportunities are also generated (especially for unique Hungarian products, the so-called Hungaricums). The role of RDI is of great importance in the production of quality food with high added value, functional foods and Hungaricums in the local food industry, shortening the food production chain and food safety.

Most important local sectoral development priorities Research on using traditional agricultural products in the product chain with special focus on their physiological effects, eg- adding grape seeds or herbs to fruit juice, and experimental development of the production of handmade beer based on hop as vegetable ingredient.

Research on functional food which is related to the specific local products of the county, their development as marketable products (eg. honey capsule, development of age-related foods), development of healthy food additives, and research on grape varieties.

Companies in the food industry have the required operation and production licenses.

Creative Industry The key objective of the creative industry is to generate innovative industrial processes with high economic potential, whose impact on economic development may improve the income-generating capacity and qualitative development of services within the sector.

Key factors of the creative industry: • Technology: presenting the use and utilization of the creative industry, its relation to industrial production, biotechnology, environmental projects, and communication and financial services; • Knowledge: operating a network that regularly communicates and co-operates and is capable of coherently formulating its interests, optimizing the capacity of the internal market and cooperate.

The Creative Industry Cluster (www.kikk.hu) is responsible for managing the paradigm shift of the economic development, whereby a more efficient utilization of the capacities of the local creative industry and export of creative industry products and services should be implemented. There is an outstanding rate of creative companies (including IT enterprises) in the county. The University of Pécs provides training programs of IT, creative industry management and arts as well.

Activities of the creative industry companies in the county Between 2008 and 2012, the fastest growing areas within the creative industry were the product, graphic and fashion design areas. The gross added value was nearly tripled and the number of enterprises was increased by two and half times. Software and game development,

planning and design and architecture are the areas where employment grows and entrepreneurial activities increase.

Creative industry companies are able to implement all the activities that are related to marketing, public relations and IT development at a high level.

Obtaining qualifications within the creative industry is not relevant.

11

Plastic Industry The plastic industry in Baranya County is significant even when the quality aspects are taken into consideration.

The utilization of the capacities of the enterprises working in the automotive and construction industries and producing for both the domestic and foreign markets can be considered to be acceptable.The organizational, technological and infrastructural developments are implemented continuously partly with their own resources or with funds from tenders.

Clustering has begun recently as a bottom-up initiative to increase market presence and representation and achieve better supplier positions and closer technological cooperation.

Activities and classifications of the plastic industry companies in the county 3D scanning, shading, manufacture of other plastic products, manufacture of injection moulded plastic products, manufacture of road vehicle, motor vehicle parts, plastic packaging material, plastic construction materials, plastic plates, sheets, tubes and profiles, technical consulting,

prototype development and production, development and production of complex electronic units, production and trade of polyethylene (PE) packaging material, Rapid Tooling, Reverse Engineering, Rapid Manufacturing, design and development, mass production.

The Hungarian Environmental Technologies Manufacturing and Development Cluster (www.hunvirontech.hu) has been established recently. The primary objective is to develop and produce tools and procedures for the resource-efficient urban systems management. Close co-operation is planned between manufacturers and suppliers, and between the supply and demand sides, involving the knowledge base of the national and local research units. Another important objective of the cluster is to create jobs.

The coordination of the activities of the manufacturers enables the region to produce entire product chains rather than remain in a supplier position. This will not only improve the income generating capacity of the region, but it also contributes to retaining highly qualified specialists here and creates new jobs.

The product range is expected to cover the majority of necessary communal industry equipment. Vehicles suitable for transporting urban solid and liquid waste, road surface repair and slippery prevention equipment, vehicles for water utility companies, flat bed and curtainsider freight superstructures, which can enable further market expansion on the basis of the current orders, can also be found in the portfolio. The Faculty of Engineering and Information Technology of the University of PĂŠcs also offers environmental industry training while there is an environmental industry research centre at the SzentĂĄgothai Research Centre.

Activities and certifications of the environmental companies in the county Environmentally friendly, up-to-date disposal of animal waste, mining, CNC machining, turning, geological exploration, geothermal exploration-planning , production of machinery, welding, hydrogeological investigations, machinery with infrared heat technology for asphalt repair and reheating asphalt, composting, environmental

Public Utilites ENERGY NETWORKS Baranya County is directly connected to Hungary’s largest power generator, the Paks Nuclear Power Plant, the power plant in Pécs and the national transmission grid. The 400 kV voltage system is capable of meeting the region’s total need for electricity. The safety of supply is further increased by its connection to the Croatian network, which provides an opportunity for a bidirectional supply. The natural gas network of the county is directly connected to the gas production and storing system in the Southern Alföld, from where a pipeline network transports the required quantity of gas to the county.

WATER SUPPLY, WASTE WATER MANAGEMENT Water supply is provided in the whole area of the county, and the constant water supply is also ensured by local water bases and built network systems (Mohács-Pécs-Komló, Pécs-Harkány, Pécs-Szentlőrinc). Sanitary sewers and sewage and waste water treatment are mainly available in larger settlements.

WASTE COLLECTION AND DISPOSAL Municipal solid waste is collected and disposed of in each settlement of Baranya County. Selective waste collection and disposal started in the past few years.

PUBLIC UTILITY CHARGES The main suppliers of electricity and natural gas in the County are members of the E.ON Group. Four tariff packages for electricity consumption are offered so that different customers’ needs can be met.

It is advisable to directly negotiate with both suppliers in order to optimize the services and tariffs.

INDUSTRIAL PARKS, INDUSTRIAL AREAS Pécs Industrial Park The municipality of Pécs (a town with county rights) regarded accessibility as the most important factor in the development of its first industrial areas. This is how the central industrial area inside the town and the eastern industrial areas were established. Companies located in the central industrial area represent the town’s historical industries with a long tradition: machinery manufacturing, leather processing and precision engineering). After the mine, which had been the most important industry in the region, was closed down, its site in the eastern part of Pécs was completely restored and extended southward, whereby the Pécs Industrial Park could be established in this new area. The municipality provides industrial areas from 15 to 50 hectares, with maximum 5% inclination for greenfield investments requiring a significantly large contiguous area. They are located next to the national main roads and adequate in all respects.

ATTRACTIONS FOR INVESTORS • It is located 2 km from the Main Road 6 (Pécs – Budapest) next to the Pécs East exit of the M60 motorway (Pécs – Budapest) and 15 km from the Pécs-Pogány International Airport • Supportive management services (to obtain permits and exploit tenders) • Re-training and further training systems adapted to needs • Highly skilled and relatively cheap workforce familiar with the latest technologies

Southern Industrial Park The 110-hectare land at the Southern border of Pécs has been entitled to use the Industrial Park title since 2010, and the Best Industrial Park award from HITA since 2012. Its system of points of single contact (PSC) and the provision of legal, financial and technical counselling were developed in collaboration with the town of Pécs. The Industrial Park collaborates with representatives of the national and foreign industry, chambers of commerce, vocational schools and the university.

They provide 200 hectares of land in one block, where the minimum size of the sites is 2,500 sqm with 50% site coverage andthe maximum building height is 6-10 meters or, depending on the location, 10-15 meters. Sites with full infrastructure are sold, rented or leased.

Why Pécs – as local people see it The M6 motorway directly connects Pécs and its surroundings with Budapest, the Liszt Ferenc International Airport and the European motorway network. The central location of the micro-region and the existing road network allows for quick access to each area. There is an electrified rail route to Budapest.

Electricity, gas and water supply are provided for Pécs and its region.

The installed capacity of networks allows for smooth operation and contributes to meeting consumers’ further demand for development.

The available workforce in the town and its region is about 6700 persons, 5000 of whom have professional qualifications. Approximately 800 of them have certificate from higher-level vocational training or college or university degree. It is an important advantage of Pécs and its surroundings that due to central traffic conditions, it is easy to commute from smaller regions to the center on a daily basis. Owing to this, the available workforce is more than 20,000 persons, 12,600 of whom have professional qualifications.

Another advantage is that beside the high rate of German and Croatian minority workforce, the number of people with English, Italian and French language competence is quite high owing to the special language programs in high schools and foreign language training programs at the university.

The Pécs region is rich in outstanding natural conditions due to Mecsek Hills, which have several nature reserves, park facilities, forest paths, streams, and lakes in the valleys, whereby they attract not only the local population but also offer pleasant resting and sporting facilities to tourists.

Pécs defined the directions of its economic development by taking into account the traditions of the town and the region, and emerging needs that can be expected in the near and distant future. In the past, mining was the basis of the economy. However, advanced food processing, light industry and machinery manufacturing were also present. The energy industry used to have an impact on the entire region of SouthTransdanubia. All these were supported by a prominent vocational training system. In the past 25 years, however, significant changes have occurred. Mining has ceased, the food and light industries have shrunk, the energy industry (production or supply of energy) has significantly transformed. The machinery manufacturing industry,

after a setback two decades ago, has started developing again and has become the crucial factor of the local economy.

The university significantly contributes to the local capacities.

Its role in education and position in research contribute to the development of the local economy. It offers several possibilities to the environmental industry, health industry and the creative industry, where the competitiveness of enterprises has considerably improved in recent years.

The greatest challenge of future needs is the protection of the environment. Therefore, Pécs has set the objective - taking the traditions and capacities into consideration – to develop the machinery manufacturing industry, the environmental industry, and technologies and services applied in the green economy. Investors are mostly expected in this field.

Beside the three industrial parks in the Pécs area, there are several smaller areas that are suitable for industrial activities. There are further large development areas in the neighbourhood of the Pécs Industrial Park, which is the location of Hungarian and foreign businesses. The Southern Industrial Park - directly located at the M60 motorway provides sites with public utilities, and the preparation of the other areas has been started. The Pannova Industrial Park is located far away from residential areas offering modern infrastructure to investors. Existing, unoccupied factory buildings are also available in this industrial park.

When construction work is needed, the staff of the industrial park help the licensing procedures and the technical preparation of the investments. The Southern Industrial Park has developed a system of points of single contact (PSC) with provision of legal, financial and technical counselling. There is no uniform investment support scheme in Pécs. It is possible, however, to apply for specific support.

Depending on total investment cost and planned employment, the implementation of development plans has been assisted several times in the past.

The transport connection of Pécs and its region has significantly been improved by the M6- M60 motorways. Nevertheless, it is unfortunate that the motorway network connection to the South or to the West has not been completed. Air traffic is ensured by the Pécs-Pogány Airport. The technical development of the airport is also planned for the upcoming years.

27

Bóly Industrial Park The Bóly Industrial Park has very advantageous conditions. It was awarded with the Industrial Park title in 1998. It provides completely improved land (full infrastructure) and is an intact area in terms of environmental protection.

The industrial park expects businesses to locate there from the following areas: local businesses, Hungarian investors outside Baranya and foreign investors Main profile of the Industrial Park: industry, services, trade and logistics

Figure 12: Layout of Bóly Industrial Park

28

Why Bóly and its region – as local people see it

The available workforce in the area is usually not skilled and capable of doing only semi-skilled jobs. The trained and skilled workforce should be attracted back from abroad. The local population consists of hard working Hungarians and minority Germans.

The micro-region is well protected from natural disasters, has excellent soil and sub-Mediterranean weather.

The main obstacle to economic development of the micro-region is the lack of unoccupied rentable factory buildings..

Photo by Bóly Municipality

The greatest advantage of the micro-region is the motorway that traverses it. Each settlement is connected to the electricity, water and natural gas network. In Bóly, the thermal water could provide further development opportunities

There is a 15-hectare available land in the Bóly Industrial Park with full infrastructure. Further available areas can be found in the villages of Szajk and Olasz.

When construction work is needed, the staff of the industrial park staff the licensing procedures and the technical preparation of the investments In addition, the local government naturally helps decision making by providing local and market information to the interested parties.

Photo by Bóly Municipality

The industrial park in Bóly expects investors mainly from the agricultural processing industry; however, industrial production facilities are also provided.

It is possible to lease or buy land in the Bóly Industrial Park. Full infrastructure is available at each site border (water, sanitary sewer, drainage, natural gas, 22 kV power grid with transformers, optical fibre net, security camera system, 80°C thermal water network, and road network). In case of purchase of land, the price is 1,800 HUF/sqm.

There is no land tax in Bóly, the property tax is 250 HUF per sqm per useful floor area per year.

The main obstacle to economic development of the micro-region is the lack of unoccupied rentable factory buildings.

The construction of utility lines was provided by the local government; however, service development tariffs should be paid to public utility companies.

29

Bicsérd Industrial Area Bicsérd is located in the central part of Baranya County, 18 km southwest of Pécs. The settlement was first mentioned in a certificate in 1262 in the so-called Árpád era. Developed agriculture has been typical here for several centuries. Bicsérd is well known for the fishing lake in the center of the village, streets decorated with flowers, outdoor works of art of the artists at the Bicsérd International Art Colony, the annual Potato Festival and other large-scale programs.

The utilization of the former military object on a 3.5-hectare land is planned to create jobs and improve employment.

ATTRACTIONS FOR INVESTORS • Distance from the Main Road 6 is 3 km and from the railway station is 2.5 km • Its distance from the settlement is in accordance with the regulations, and it can be accessed on a paved road • Electricity and water are available • Buildings have been renewed, the piping system has been replaced, new electrical wiring has been installed and new lighting network has been created • The area is equipped with external spotlights, alarm systems, the entrance area is protected with video surveillance, and the whole area is fenced

Businesses: the area is suitable for small workshops, storage of goods, small warehouses or several smaller plants with little workforce.

Figure 13: Bicsérd Industrial Area

Hosszúhetény Industrial Area Hosszúhetény is located 16 km northeast of Pécs, on the southern slope of the East Mecsek Hill, at the foot of Hármashegy and Zengő in picturesque surroundings. Püspökszentlászló and Kisújbánya, the largest forest villages of Baranya County can also be found here.

As a public administrative unit, it is directly adjacent to Pécs, the County seat and Komló, which is the second largest town in the county.

ATTRACTIONS FOR INVESTORS • Opportunities due to the traffic on the Main Road 6 • The village belongs to a free enterprise zone with special discounts available for enterprises • Appropriate infrastructure, available network of institutions, and all utilities are provided in the village Main profile: areas for economic utilization will be made available along the western bypass road, between the road and the settlement. Building restrictions will conform to natural environment in an environmentally friendly way, which will be included in the master plan amendment due in the near future.

Figure 14: Hosszúhetény Industrial Area

31

Komló Industrial Park The town of Komló has gone through radical economic transformation in the past 15 years. A number of abandoned mining sites were taken over by entirely new companies with new profiles, many of which are re-utilizing the former mining facilities. The industrial park, which is privately owned today, was established in the area of the former mining plants in 1999. There are several privately owned areas for development at former Zobák and Béta shafts. The area owned by the local government in Nagyrét Street is used by a recently established enterprise manufacturing automotive parts.

The first “inhabitants” of the industrial park were businesses privatized from former ancillary plants of the Mecsek Coal Mines. By now, a dozen new companies have joined them at the site. There is about 6 hectares of free land available for investors.

ATTRACTIONS FOR INVESTORS • Fully developed infrastructure: electricity provided by their own transformer station, access to gas, water and sanitary sewer networks and the communication cables have been laid down • Outdoor lighting • Fully developed internal road network • Proximity to local railway station • Potential partners are provided with comprehensive consulting services in case of change of site relocation – including technical, legal, financial, environmental and quality assurance issues

Why Komló – as local people see

Metallurgical industry is considered a traditional industry in this micro-region, where trained workforce is available in each trade. However, their rate is low due to migration.

Photo by Lakics Ltd.

The town and its region expect investors in the fields of metallurgical industry, green energy and renewable energy production.

Due to the high number of low-skilled job seekers, the investment of businesses requiring assembling activities is also welcome.

In terms of licensing procedures and technical preparation, the local government has been providing maximum assistance to investors.

Major obstacles to economic development include the lack of national main roads, low number of appropriate municipal estates, the low skills and qualifications of the local labor force and the migration of educated and trained young people.

Photo by Lakics Ltd.

Another favorable condition is the availability of thermal water and spas (Komlo-Sikonda, Magyarhertelend) in the micro-region.

KomlĂł provides direct financial support for the purchase of land and acquisition of real estates - depending on the planned number of people to be employed. Investors are completely exempted from paying the obligatory contribution fee to public utility development.

Photo by Ratipur Ltd.

The best advantage of the town and its region in terms of infrastructure is the full and high-capacity utility network. The rate of paved roads within municipal boundaries is also high.

33

Mohács Industrial Park The local government of Mohács established the industrial park in 1999 in order to improve its economic situation. Full infrastructure has been installed by the town of Mohács in nearly 30% of the 166.9-hectare unimproved municipal area of the industrial park in the Mohács Business Zone.

The investment included the sanitary sewer, water, gas, outdoor lighting, electricity network and the transport infrastructure. As a result of the development, new premises have been created. Owing to the infrastructure development, entrepreneurs of the region can exploit the opportunities of regional and EU business expansion. The town is ready to provide green field investment requiring large contiguous sites (7-11 hectares) with completely suitable areas that have direct access to the motorway network (M6), are situated next to the River Danube and are connected to the railway network with and industrial track rail.

New Hungarian and foreign manufacturing enterprises locate in the incubator house as their business risk can be diminished during the initial period. The incubator house contributes to the strengthening of the productive capacity of the region, the development of new industrial infrastructure, the improvement of the competitiveness of the SMEs of the region with low capitalization, and the increase in the utilization of the Mohács Industrial Park.

The target group of the development is SMEs with low capital, which needs support for starting or continuing and improving their operation under adequate circumstances. The Incubator can contribute to their market stability, enables them to develop independently in the future and can make them become stable actors in the economy..

ATTRACTIONS FOR INVESTORS • It is located in a border area, which contributes to building international relations with Serbia, Croatia and the Balkans • Proximity of the Danube and significant (freight and passanger service) traffic due to the international waterway access • Distance from the M6 Motorway (Budapest-Pécs): 7km • Distance from the international airport of Pécs-Pogány: 40 km • Trained, multilingual (German and English) and relatively cheap workforce

Main profile of the industrial park: logistics, shipment, incubation house services, food industry, textile industry and automotive industry.

34

Why Mohács – as local people see it The best advantage of the micro-region in terms of infrastructure is the direct access to the M6 Motorway, which traverses the area. It is within easy reach of the regional settlements, Mohács, the Industrial Park and the Danube port.

In the industrial area of Mohács, it possible to develop an intermodal logistics base with appropriate water, rail and road transportation links.

The volume of available workforce is about 3,600 people, minimum 2,000 of whom are suitable for employment in competitive enterprises.

There is a lot of minority workforce in the micro-region with German and Croatian language skills.

The most significant natural condition is the direct proximity of the River Danube , the beautiful natural environment of the Gemenc and Béda-Karapancsa areas, and the high quality of arable lands.

The agricultural processing industry, wood industry, light industry and metallurgical industry (iron and aluminium foundry, manufacturing of construction machinery and metal processing) have a long tradition in the region. There is great potential in exploiting opportunities of the logistics capacities, agricultural processing industry and other industries requiring higher skills and technological expertise.

In the industrial park, if a fully improved land is sold, the purchaser can be offered a discount of 600 thousand HUF for each new job created and a discount of 300 thousand HUF per capita per workplace for investments for job preservation. Production floors in the 2,700-sqm incubator house can be leased at a discount rental fee.

When construction work is carried out, the staff of the technical department of the local government help businesses with the licensing procedures and technical preparation of investments.

In the industrial park, the fee of contribution to water and waste water development can be spent on the water and sewage network installation of the given investments of businesses.

The rate of local tax is as low as 263 HUF per sqm for buildings used by the enterprise. Land tax is calculated on the basis of the size of the land. A site is exempted from land tax if actual production as a main activity is implemented in the building suitable for production, for which at least 25% of the total site is used.

The major obstacle to economic development is the lack of a port suitable for loading containers and general cargo and the lack of a bridge over the Danube.

35

Szigetvár Industrial Areas Szigetvár is located in Baranya County, 35 km west of Pécs. The small town and its region have excellent natural conditions. Besides the good quality farmland, forests and lakes, the area is rich in thermal water and medicinal water. The spa, which provides 62oC thermal water for visitors wishing to heal and relax, is located in the heart of the town next to the castle.

Food industry, metallurgical industry and wood industry are mainly typical of the economy of the town.

The town does not have a single industrial park, and industrial plants are located in different parts of the settlement.

There is only one contigous industrial area in the southeast part of the town. The local government can provide four areas for rent or sale, two of which are 0.5 hectares and the other two areas are approximately 2 hectares.

36

The best infrastructural advantage of the micro-region is that the Main Roads 6 and 67 traverse it. Road 6 provides connection to east and Pécs, from where there is a motorway to Budapest, and the road reaches Barcs and Croatia toward west. The Main Road 67 leads to Kaposvár and Lake Balaton.

The Pécs-Barcs-Gyékényes main railway line, which provides great transport services to Budapest, Pécs, West Hungary and Croatia (Zagreb), goes through Szigetvár.

Photo by József Pinczehelyi

Why Szigetvár – as local people see it

The natural conditions of the region include a significant reserve of medicinal and thermal water and plenty of hours of sunlight per year.

Expansion of employment opportunities and the strengthening of the local economy are considered to be the most important tasks in the town and its micro-region; therefore, in addition to job creation, the deployment of plants planning the development of a suppliers’ network is preferred. Businesses involved in logistics, food industry, light industry are expected in particular.

Photo by Iron-Tech Ltd.

There are about 1,000 job seekers in the micro-region with some qualifications. Most of the unemployed have qualifications in the fields of agriculture, construction industry, light industry and machinery manufacturing industry.

The local government can support the development of businesses by offering properties with full infrastructure for sale, and they also help with the licensing procedures and technical preparation.

The major obstacle to economic development is the distance from motorways and the partial lack of business services.

Establishing preferential land prices and overtaking the contribution fee for public utility development are possible on the basis of individual agreements.

37

Sellye Industrial Park Sellye is the single town in the Ormánság area. The industrial park is located in a designated industrial area in the southwest of the town. The total area (including roads) is 20.43 hectares, 12.75 hectares of which can be utilized.

84% of the area is owned by the local government of Sellye.

Siklós Industrial Park The municipality of Siklós acquired the title Industrial Park in January 2016. The industrial park is located next to the northern bypass. The infrastructure of the settled territory is good (sanitary sewer, water, gas, electricity network, landline telephone and internet, transport and parking places, and outdoor lightning), 16-hectars, with 24 active enterprises.

The expansion of the necessary infrastructure and the establishment of an incubator house on the 13.5-hectare development area would the municipality implement with funds, within the tendering TOP-1.1.1-15., call for the development of industrial parks and industrial areas. The incubator house in Siklós would also contribute to the development of economic cooperation on the Hungarian-Croatian border.

The Szentágothai Research Centre (www.szkk.pte.hu) is the leading innovation base of the region, which is the Central European centre of the health industry, the environmental industry and the engineering sciences. The Research Centre organizes R&D work ranging from basic research to development of industrial applications in 25 research groups relying on industrial relations. The innovation department of the Chamber of Industry, the regional office of the Hungarian Association for Innovation and knowledge transfer offices of the universities in Pécs and Kaposvár support the utilization of the innovation potential.

The Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Pécs-Baranya is a member of Europe’s largest business and innovation network, the Enterprise Europe Network, which implements innovative knowledge transfer, conducts potential surveys and coordinates the export market opportunities for innovative products and services via 600 points of contact. (www.enterpriseeurope.hu)

Clusters in Pécs and South West Hungary The Competitiveness Pole Strategy is supported by outstandingly well-organized regional cluster networks and systems in all three priority sectors and also in horizontal sectors.

In 2010 the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Pécs-Baranya signed a cooperation agreement with several clusters operating mainly in the South-West Hungarian region. The objective of the framework agreement is to start synergic development work with the cooperation of the chamber and clusters so that the economic and innovative potential of the region can be strengthened. The clusters, which are representatives of the sectoral cooperation of the local economy, can get international visibility and opportunities for training and business via the European projects of the chamber of commerce. The economic exploitation of the results of innovation, the joint representation and the development of export capacities can be achieved through the collaboration. The local clusters have not only been involved in the development work in European international collaborations, but also signed international business agreements.

A cluster development platform based on a special methodology, the so-called cluster portfolio, was developed with the support of the Ministry of National Economy and the Hungarian Chamber of Commerce and Industry in 2013. The innovation and service/product portfolio of ten clusters in the region were analyzed and identified.

Portfolios are available at www.klaszterportfolio.hu “In the absence of economic development, South-West Hungary will remain among the lagging regions. The Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Pécs-Baranya supports not only individual companies but also joint development of clusters. We developed the content of the cooperation together in accordance with the needs and possibilities of the clusters” (Dr. István Kéri, President, Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Pécs-Baranya).

Structure, Quality and Capacity of the School System GENERAL INTRODUCTION In Hungary, the primary education lasts for 8 years. From September 2016 former technical colleges work as technical secondary grammar schools, and trade schools work as technical colleges. From both schools types can be graduated with a matriculation certificate. 4 years of technical secondary grammar schools is completed with a matriculation certificate and a vocational certificate, and in a further year a higher level vocational certificate can be obtained. After the first three years in technical colleges, vocational certificate can be obtained, and after an additional 2-year-long training program a matriculation certificate can be earned.

Vocational training is based on dual education. Theoretical education takes place at schools while vocational practice can be done from the 10th grade at enterprises. The state encourages practical training at companies by providing normative support.

In higher education it takes three years to complete the Bachelor’s program and get a degree. The two-year-long Master’s training program is based on the Bachelor’s degree. There is an undivided 5-year-long training program in the fields of law, medicine and teacher training. From 2015 onwards, it is also possible to choose the dual training form in higher education.

PUBLIC EMPLOYMENT SERVICES The Employment Department of the Government Office of Baranya County and the employment departments of the district government offices offer a lot of employment services and support to help businesses so that existing jobs can be preserved and new jobs can be created.

AVAILABLE SUBSIDIES Wage subsidies for employment expansion The subsidy is available when new jobs are created to cover a specified percentage of the wages and social contribution tax of the persons to be employed. The wage subsidy is typically 70%, which may vary depending on the availability of sources. After the grant period, the beneficiary shall typically assume liability on further employment.

Wage and salary subsidies Subsidy may be granted to the employer for a person employed full-time, part-time or at least 4 hours per day up to one hundred percent of the wage and social contribution tax of the respective person. The grant duration period and the amount of subsidy depend on the availability of sources.

Subsidy for wage and salary cost is only available if the person concerned belongs to one of the disadvantaged target groups. Subsidies for the expansion of employment will be implemented through individual schemes that are most supportive of the future (and unsupported) employment of participants.

When employers apply for wage subsidies, they are entitled to qualify for tax reliefs.

59

Support for mobility • Support for intercity travel • Support for collective public transport • Housing assistance Support for training If there are not any adequately qualified job-seekers available for meeting the specific needs of the employer, it is possible to claim support for the costs of vocational training or workplace training during employment or before that.

Job Protection Action Plan The program offers tax relief of the social security contribution and vocational training contribution to employers of disadvantaged workers in the labour force market in order that they can preserve existing jobs and create new jobs. The action plan can be applied for new employees and for those who are employed currently. The tax relief is eligible regardless of other forms of support and its extent depends on the target group the employee belongs to.

Considering the planned investment and expansion of employment, it is possible to form specific subsidy schemes for training and employment support depending on the availability of sources.

AVAILABLE FREE SERVICES Personnel selection based on competence examination Following the announcement of employer’s labor demand, the staff in the labor center implement a multistep process in order to select those candidates of the registered unemployed who meet the employer’s expectations most and have the necessary competencies for the job to be filled.

It is recommended that the employment department of the relevant district office should always be contacted when subsidy applications are submitted, specific workforce needs are reported, information about the current forms of support is needed, and any further information is required.
