In 1995, DUNAFERR Rt. and its companies established under the name DUNAFERR Alkotói Alapítvány a legal entity of public interest for the more efficient utilization of intellectual capital, and to establish the conditions for the moral and material recognition of valuable intellectual creative activity.
The activities of DUNAFERR Alkotói Alapítvány over the past 15 years have been diverse in the field of technical sciences, particularly in the areas of innovation, networking and tradition preservation. The Foundation also functions as a kind of regional intellectual workshop and considers it important to raise awareness of the work being done here for the general public.
An important segment of the Foundation's activities is the operation of the application system, which provides a well-functioning framework for comparing, evaluating and recognizing outstanding activities.
