International Tax Trends and Italian Tax Reform Conference

Thursday 1st October, 2015 09.00 - 18.00

Starhotels Rosa Grand - Piazza Fontana, Milan

The evolution of tax regulations is part of the wider context which relates to global economic changes and today, more than ever, the European Union is supporting the slow but continuous harmonisation of national tax legislation of its members, with particular reference to pan-European transactions.

Senior professionals at DLA Piper from Italy and its global offices, including Roderik Bouwman, Antonio Tomassini, Giulio Andreani, Fabrizio Capponi and Christian Montinari, as well as Tax Executives of primary Italian and International companies and financial institutions will share news and insights relating to recent trends and discuss business choices, optimizing the available resources when implementing their strategies and long-term goals from a tax stand point, and discuss these topics with Italian tax institutions' representatives.

Key note speakers at the event will include Italian Treasury's fiscal affairs advisor Vieri Ceriani and Rossella Orlandi, General Director of Italy's Tax Revenue Agency.
