Kézilabda Club Veszprém is a Hungarian handball club from Veszprém, which plays in the Nemzeti Bajnokság I and the EHF Champions League. One of the most successful teams in the country, Veszprém won the Hungarian Championship a record 23 times and took the Hungarian Cup title an unprecedented 24 occasions. Also they were champions of regional SEHA League in two times. They are one of the three Hungarian clubs that have ever won a major European trophy, most recently in 2008, when they overcame Rhein-Neckar Löwen and were crowned as the EHF Cup Winner's Cup champions. Since 2005 the team was known as MKB Veszprém KC, and since 2016, the team's name has been Telekom Veszprém, due to sponsorship reasons.
The main sponsors of the club were the MKB Bank and the MVM Group. In the summer of 2015, the MKB Bank decided to quit sponsoring after a 10 years interval. Their main focus is now on the younger teams, and so the main sponsor. Currently the main sponsor is Magyar Telekom.
