This study aims to evaluate the effects of FDI-led reindustrialisation on regional economic development in Hungary.
Identified five region types based on industrial structures and trajectories.
Assessed productivity gains and innovation capacity at the NUTS 3 level.
Compared regional development in Hungary to former EU12 member states.
Reindustrialisation contributed to regional catching-up until 2015.
Post-2015, several regions showed signs of a development trap with limited innovation.
FDI-led reindustrialisation correlates with structural constraints hindering long-term growth.
