ITcég

An ITcég is a Hungarian-language term used to describe a company that operates in the information technology sector. In Hungarian usage, the term refers to firms that provide services such as software development, IT consulting, system integration, cybersecurity, cloud computing, data analytics, and technical support. ITcég is not a specific legal form; it denotes the business activity and specialization of the enterprise.

Typical services include software development (custom applications, web and mobile apps), IT consulting and managed services (IT strategy, project management, system administration), and infrastructure solutions (networks, cloud migration, cybersecurity). Some firms also offer product development, software-as-a-service platforms, or hardware services, including deployment and maintenance.

Business models vary, including project-based pricing, time-and-material contracts, or recurring revenue from managed services and subscriptions. Intellectual property rights and ownership arrangements are typically defined in client contracts. These companies may work directly with end users or as subcontractors to larger integrators, and they commonly participate in outsourcing arrangements or nearshore/offshore delivery.

In Hungary, IT companies are a major part of the technology sector and are supported by a skilled workforce and a growing startup ecosystem. They operate under various legal forms, most commonly as limited liability companies (Kft.) or joint-stock companies (Rt), and are subject to national and EU regulations on data protection, labor law, and taxes. The industry is influenced by digital transformation trends, cybersecurity concerns, and demand for cloud-based solutions.
