Alongside the company’s dynamic development in recent years and the continued expansion of its real estate portfolio, Innovinia is also reshaping its management structure. The changes aim to further strengthen the management of its core areas and ensure that its leadership is structured to support future growth.
As part of these changes, Ádám Székely, Owner and Managing Director, is handing over the operational management of the company to Máté Kovács, who will assume responsibility for the day-to-day operations as Managing Director. Going forward, Ádám Székely will focus on the company’s strategic priorities and the achievement of its long-term business and investment objectives.
Máté Kovács joined Innovinia more than five years ago, following the first ten years of his career in the banking sector. He gained experience in corporate banking and project finance at three Hungarian commercial banks, subsequently taking responsibility for leading the corporate banking business unit as Managing Director. At Innovinia, he has previously led the finance, operations and business development functions. In recognition of his professional achievements, he received the Rising Talent of the Year award at the 2026 Real Estate Awards. As Managing Director, his responsibilities include coordinating the company’s day-to-day operations and supporting the implementation of its growth strategy.
Bálint Virág will take over as Director of Finance, overseeing Innovinia’s financial management. He began his career in banking before spending more than a decade in the energy sector, initially in structured finance, then as Head of Investment Planning and Analysis, where he was responsible for the financial planning, modelling and analysis of large-scale investments. At Innovinia, his responsibilities will include managing the group’s capital structure, debt financing and hedging transactions, as well as the financial evaluation of investments and development projects.
Nikoletta Ispánki will assume leadership of the sales and business development departments. She brings more than 20 years of experience in the real estate sector. Throughout her career, she has held various positions at Cushman & Wakefield and Skanska, before transitioning to Country Manager for Hungary at IWG. Her market knowledge, extensive professional network and commercial leadership experience will play an important role in guiding Innovinia’s sales and business development activities and capitalising on the company’s market opportunities.
Balázs Czifra, Innovinia’s former Director of Sales and Asset Management, will now focus primarily on asset management responsibilities related to the company’s growing real estate portfolio. In addition, as Director of Transactions, he will be responsible for acquisitions related to the portfolio. With more than 25 years of real estate experience in Hungary and Central and Eastern Europe, he has held positions across various areas from advisory, to development and investment, including at DTZ, SEGRO and Diófa Asset Management. His international experience and comprehensive knowledge of the real estate market are key to preserving and increasing the long-term value of the portfolio.
“Over the past years, Innovinia has undergone significant development, and our portfolio has continued to expand. In parallel, we are shaping the responsibilities of our management team to ensure dedicated attention across all key areas. The new structure clearly distinguishes strategic, operational, financial, commercial and asset management responsibilities, enabling us to pursue our long-term objectives with even greater momentum,” said Ádám Székely, owner of Innovinia.
Innovinia aims to continue expanding its real estate portfolio dynamically in the coming years, while retaining its flexible approach and strong ownership mindset, and further strengthening its position in the Hungarian real estate development market.
