Navigating Tax for Nordic Style Growth: CBS Annual International Tax Law Conference – 2024
Join us at CBS LAW for the CBS Annual International Tax Conference 2024 on 21 November. This year’s conference will explore from a Nordic perspective, how to navigate recent tax policy developments while pursuing Nordic-style growth—a model characterized by social inclusivity, sustainable practices, and market competitiveness, with an emphasis on trust, welfare, and overall well-being.
The recent EU report on “The Future of European Competitiveness” gives off a clear warning signal: European growth has been slowing since the beginning of the 21st century. Since 2000, real disposable income growth in the United States has been double that of the European Union. In the same period, the innovation gap between the US and the EU has widened, and the EU has become more geopolitically vulnerable due to its dependency on other countries in strategic areas. The report highlights the critical need for investment in growth to overcome these challenges and to prevent the EU falling further behind.
At the same time, over the last 20 years many new national and international tax rules have been introduced. Many of these tax measures have either had as their goal to discourage certain practices, to prevent abuse and avoidance, or to introduce extra reporting and disclosure requirements. As such, these developments in tax might be seen to run counter to achieving growth in the EU.
Our conference will address challenges posed by recent tax developments in light of Europe’s slowing growth and provide insights on whether the recent tax developments may prove an asset to achieving Nordic-style, sustainable and inclusive growth.
The event will feature presentations and panel discussions by leading experts and practitioners who will address this theme from their own unique vantage point. The speakers include:
- Philip Baker KC (Field Court Tax Chambers and University of Oxford)
- Camilla Rønne Wright (Novo Nordisk)
- Jakob Bundgaard (Corit Advisory)
- Elin Sarai (NHH Norwegian School of Economics)
This is an excellent opportunity to connect with colleagues in tax law and gain insights from top professionals in the field. We welcome participants from the private sector, public authorities, and academia. We especially invite CBS students to be a part of this event on how to drive inclusive and sustainable growth in the Nordics.
The event will run from 13:00 to 17:00 at Copenhagen Business School, Solbjerg Plads 3 (Auditorium SPs14), followed by a reception for further networking.
