Representatives from the International Tax Review, an influential Euromoney publication, also attended the event to present three newcomer awards given in 2008, recognising the quality of our international tax advice in the Americas, Asia and Europe.

Client feedback from the event has been outstanding. One particular client comment really hit home:

                “I would like to thank you [Taxand] on behalf of all of the tax professionals
in industry for providing us with an alternative for high quality tax advice”.
