Laszlo Igneczi

Most recently he served for ten years as the head of the EU agency to support the Body of European Regulators for Electronic Communications (BEREC).
He enabled BEREC to accomplish its duties in strengthening the EU digital single market, and to shift its focus towards emerging challenges in data economy and in AI. He also assisted candidate countries’ authorities and those of Eastern Partnership countries in approximation to the EU.
Before that, for nearly another decade, he worked at the national administration of his country of origin, right after their accession to the European Union. He spent almost six years at the Permanent Representation to the EU, focusing on the successful first Hungarian Presidency of the EU Council in 2011. There he gained extensive experience in stakeholders contacts, in interinstitutional affairs and in EU legislative and non-legislative activities in digital matters.
During the first decade of his career he worked in the private sector, mainly for telecommunications operators, in middle and senior management posts. He had roles in mergers, acquisitions and organisation developments, as well as in business planning and reporting, in the age of market liberalization and digital transition within the telecommunications sector.
