PROTAX would like to invite you to attend online the final PROTAX conference on “Addressing Human and Legal Factors in Tax Compliance and Enforcement in the EU and Beyond”. The second International PROTAX conference will be held on 7-8 July 2021, bringing together key stakeholders to share and debate the novel findings by PROTAX.
This conference will mark the completion of PROTAX “New Methods to Prevent, Investigate and Mitigate Corruption and Tax Crimes in the EU”, an EU-funded H2020 research project (2018-2021), which has already demonstrated considerable impact on enhancing counter-tax crime measures across the EU and become a pivotal reference point for researchers in criminal law measures regarding tax offences.
