Digital taxes in the EU and post-Soviet countries was the topic for the latest webinar held jointly by Kesarev and the European Affairs Consulting Group – EACON yesterday. The presenters discussed the building trend towards digital taxation globally and the chain of influence from Brussels to Moscow and the wider post-Soviet region, as well as future implications for the wider business community beyond the technology sector.
Experts from both organizations shared their perspectives on:
- Overview of the digital taxation and policy debate in the EU and the post-Soviet markets
- Regulatory procedures in both geographical areas
- The influence of the European legislation on the regulation in Russia and consequently, the whole post-Soviet space, despite the increasing political disagreements
- Opportunities and limitations for the corporate sector to influence the decision making in the EU and post-Soviet markets, including on the national and supranational institutions.
Representatives of the leading international Tech sector companies and the relevant business associations who participated in the webinar actively engaged in the discussion of the presented materials.
