Upcoming Webinar: Breaking the Cycle of Black Box Tax Tech with Open Source
Date: September 11, 2025
Time: 10:00 – 11:00 AM (UTC)
Speaker: Walid Eljaafari, CEO of Algonomia & President of the Open Tax Society
Why This Webinar Matters
Today’s tax environment is evolving faster than ever:
BEPS and Pillar 2 are reshaping global frameworks
CbCR obligations are multiplying
Transfer Pricing rules are growing more complex
AI-powered compliance tools are emerging
Yet, most tax technology remains locked in closed systems, with siloed data and commercial bias.
The Open Tax Society (OTS) offers a different path:
Nonprofit
Open-source
Scientific
Our mission is to make global tax knowledge transparent, computable, and accessible for all.
