CLUSTER

Vision

The Zalai Önvezető Jármű Klaszter aims to become, by 2029, the leading business and development community of Hungarian automotive suppliers.

We are building a community whose members come out as winners of the automotive transition: they win new orders, operate more efficiently and profitably, and have the knowledge and workforce the change requires.

Our work rests on services built around members’ real business needs, with measurable impact, and on genuine cooperation among our members.

Mission

Our mission is to strengthen the competitiveness of our member companies, primarily Hungarian SME suppliers, in two ways: we open up new business opportunities for them, and we help them run their operations more efficiently.

We connect our members with vehicle manufacturers, major system suppliers and international value chains. We give practical support for the technological, digital and green transition, and we develop the skills of their employees.

To support digital transition, we build on the expertise and services of the Data-EDIH 2.0 European Digital Innovation Hub, coordinated by ZONE Cluster. Our international network adds to this: EIT Urban Mobility, European partner clusters, V4 cooperation and the CEE Automotive Transition Forum.
