ETL GLOBAL is proud to announce the successful conclusion of its International Conference 2026, held in Warsaw on 1–2 October. As the most important event in the network’s calendar, this year’s conference brought together around 250 participants from over 40 countries and 5 continents under the theme “Time for Good News”, celebrating the achievements of its members and the relationships that connect them across borders.
There was plenty to catch up on during the first day’s plenary session, which welcomed new member firms and highlighted developments across ETL GLOBAL. Colleagues shared success stories, discussed changes within the network and presented ongoing projects of interest to members. The session offered an opportunity to recognise the work behind these achievements and share ideas with the wider ETL GLOBAL community. A closing speech by professional speaker Alex Panayotou rounded off the plenary programme, followed by a fantastic dinner where participants could reconnect with familiar faces and get to know new colleagues.
The second day saw the return of the working group meetings, an essential part of the conference and an opportunity for members to exchange knowledge within their specialist fields. Sessions covered Tax, VAT, Transfer Pricing, Global Mobility, Real Estate, Inheritance Tax & Law, Employment Law, IP Law, Audit, M&A, Innovation and Payroll. By addressing these topics together, members deepened their discussions, strengthened professional ties and explored new opportunities for collaboration.
The celebrations continued on the second evening at MOXO, a restaurant and event venue housed in a restored foundry hall within Warsaw’s historic Norblin Factory complex. Its spectacular setting provided the backdrop for a memorable closing event, with fantastic food and karaoke giving colleagues the chance to unwind and enjoy a final evening together after two intensive days of work.
ETL GLOBAL warmly thanks all participants for their contribution to this year’s conference and for making Warsaw such a memorable meeting point for the network.
