Event Overview
The Corporate and M&A Commission and the Tax Law Commission are delighted to invite you to a joint Winter Seminar 2025 in the heart of the spectacular Alps.
Silvretta Montafon is one of the largest ski resorts in Austria offering a huge range of opportunities for winter sport enthusiasts. While freestyle skiing in that ski resort is an exceptional experience, we will bridge the gap between M&A and tax professionals at our joint Winter Seminar to avoid freestyle in tax-related aspects of M&A transactions.
The seminar aims to consolidate the knowledge of M&A and tax professionals by providing a platform for fruitful discussions on the intricacies of each domain. The academic programme of the seminar will provide participants with an in-depth understanding of renowned tax-related aspects of M&A transactions. We will discuss topics such as tax risk allocation, pre- and post-closing (tax) structuring, the role of VAT and indirect taxes, tax reporting and compliance obligations as well as alignment of management and employees through incentives plans. The carefully curated agenda, consisting of panels and real-life case studies, aims to enhance the practical application of knowledge, equipping participants with the tools needed to navigate the complex landscape of tax due diligence, structuring, and employee incentives in M&A transactions.
Distinguished speakers will lead insightful sessions, covering the nuanced mechanisms necessary for the seamless execution of deals with a focus on tax-related aspects. Attendees will not only gain a profound understanding of strategic approaches to structuring and employee incentives, but will also acquire practical insights into the techniques essential for successful transactions.
The OC will bring you as close as possible to the marvelous Austrian part of the Alps and will arrange for a remarkable social programme Including skiing (as well as other fun winter sport activities), local experiences, après ski and party. Our goal is to let our participants benefit from a top-notch academic programme and to create a feel-good atmosphere throughout the entire seminar allowing for unforgettable memories. Be part of this unique and fun experience!
