2020 States' Taxation Online Series

The States’ Taxation online event remains the only all-encompassing national series, covering all state and territory taxes in one technical program.

In keeping with the current climate, the annual states’ taxation conference will be delivered as a 7-part online webinar series. As always, effort has been made to present topics of universal interest across all the state taxes.

This year’s technical program has a strong focus on timely issues, relevant to the practitioner today and like in previous years, will be particularly valuable for those with practices operating across multiple jurisdictions.

Innovative, immersive, invigorating. Experience tax technical as it should be.

This year, delegates to the 28th Noosa Tax Intensive have the opportunity to attend this unmissable event in its historical homeland: Terrigal, NSW.

Terrigal, located on the NSW Central Coast, is home to sandy beaches, a tranquil lagoon and, for two days this November, some of the best minds in tax. By bringing the Noosa Tax Intensive back to Terrigal, we’re opening the tax intensive experience up to delegates who may not be able to reach Noosa this year.

Delivered in a new, digitally-forward format, the event delivers the same immersive tax technical program in both Terrigal and Noosa, focusing on key tax issues for SMEs and the impact of COVID-19. With a blend of live-streamed presentations, in-person, interactive workshops and networking opportunities on offer, it’s the place to be for tax practitioners in 2020.
