Grand Opening of the Đuro Horvat Promenade and Unveiling of His Bust
In an atmosphere of deep respect and gratitude, the Đuro Horvat Promenade was officially inaugurated, and a bust of Đuro Horvat was unveiled, paying lasting tribute to the life and legacy of a man whose vision, innovations, and dedication left an indelible mark on the development of Croatian industry, as well as on Međimurje, Croatia, and the international community. This ceremonial event represents far more than the naming of a public space. It is an expression of appreciation for the legacy Đuro Horvat left to future generations—a legacy founded on knowledge, responsibility, creativity, integrity, and profound respect for both people and nature. These values have been embedded in Tehnix since its foundation and continue to serve as the cornerstone of the company's present and future development. The ceremony brought together numerous distinguished guests, representatives of national and local institutions, the business and scientific communities, partners, friends, and members of the Horvat family, all of whom gathered to honour a man whose vision was ahead of its time and whose work and ideas made a lasting contribution to the advancement of sustainable technologies and environmental protection. The inauguration of the Đuro Horvat Promenade and the unveiling of his bust preserve the memory of an extraordinary individual while conveying a powerful message that innovation, responsible entrepreneurship, and dedicated work are enduring values that continue to inspire present and future generations.
