Forum Hungaricum Nonprofit Kft. operates MaNDA, the Hungarian National Digital Archive, a public online database that publishes digitized cultural items from Hungarian museums, libraries, archives and private collections on one interface. The company collects and organises the digital objects and their metadata, and exports them to Europeana. It also publishes thematic virtual exhibitions and articles built from database items.

The partners are cultural institutions: museums, libraries, archives, cultural and public education centres, non-profit organisations and church collections. Since 2013, more than 200 current and former partner institutions have published digitized documents through the database. Digitization work is partly carried out through a national public employment programme for cultural digitization, run together with participating municipalities and cultural institutions. The service is offered to the public free of charge.

The company is a Hungarian non-profit limited liability company with a Budapest mailing address. It is included in the company database as an aggregator of national cultural digital content.
