Thanks @surethsloane for an inspiring workshop!! And thanks to all @RSIT_tue @trr_accounting and @wu_accounting participants!
Our PhD students were stoked to have @surethsloane over @uni_tue for an intense two-day immersion into business taxation. We had heated discussions on everything from how not to double-count MNE profits to how IRS resources affect the audit process of corporations. Thanks Caren!
