A Global Perspective on Tax When Entering Global Markets
Tuesday, October 27 | 10:30 AM – 11:30 PM
Angelo Torres, Vice President, Tax Technology VAT Operations
Eduardo Martinez, Senior Manager
Expanding into new international markets brings significant opportunity—but also introduces a host of complex tax obligations that can easily be underestimated. From indirect tax registration and VAT determination to invoicing, reporting, and cross-border supply chain considerations, companies must align tax strategy with business expansion plans from the start.
In this session, panelists will discuss key tax and compliance factors companies must address when entering global markets, including regional VAT/GST nuances, regulatory obligations, and how evolving digital tax mandates can impact operations. Presenters will discuss and advise on the complexities related to compliance in Brazil and bring real time examples experienced through completed project as well as the multiple RFPs that are being received. The session will highlight how collaboration between tax, IT, and business stakeholders—and the right tax technology—can help companies scale efficiently while minimizing risk.
Attendees will gain insight into:
- Common tax challenges faced during global expansion
- The importance of early tax planning in go-to-market strategies
- Tools and technology that support scalable global tax compliance
- How leading organizations are managing VAT determination, e-invoicing, and local reporting requirements
- Whether you’re entering a single new market or building a long-term international presence, this session will help you approach global growth with a tax strategy that supports scale and compliance.
