The Papers

Our two newspapers, The Budapest Times and Budapester Zeitung, have fought their way to the top and now are the only weeklies in their respective languages on the market. The papers are produced by two separate editorial teams with Mr. Mainka overseeing Budapester Zeitung, while the largely British staff of The Budapest Times is led by Canadian managing editor Allan Boyko, who has been with the newspaper since the beginning. Both publications employ skilfull, multilingual journalists, as well as renowned domestic and foreign experts.

Target Audience

Both of our papers are primarily read by German- and English- speaking expatriate business people, as well as members of the diplomatic corps. In addition, there is a growing appeal to Hungarians attracted to politically independent reports, to those interested in our exclusive interviews, and for individuals trying to enhance their language skills. A significant number of language schools use our articles to prepare their students for special language exams.
