    Interesting facts

    The history of the company dates back to 1990 , when Freed Peter, an American IT specialist of Hungarian origin, took advantage of the opportunity offered by the regime change and started a business in Hungary. He was sure that the market for information technology equipment and services would soon boom, since previously the country had not been able to access modern devices due to the CoCom list. So he put together a well-structured, thorough business plan and then applied to the Hungarian-American Enterprise Fund with it. Freed Peter still proudly recalls that his business plan was the first to be accepted and supported by the fund operating under the auspices of the senior George Bush administration. The wall of his office is adorned with an American flag, as well as a document certifying that the flag had previously decorated the Capitol in Washington – a reminder of this every day. With the support of the fund, the company was soon established with a capital of 3 million dollars, and they immediately received a nice commission in 1991.
