PwC Tax Colloquium

The Tax Colloquium is an annual program sponsored by PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) that precedes the American Accounting Association meeting. Selected tax faculty from top colleges and universities from across the country are invited to learn more about PwC and the profession. The Tax Colloquium is a one and a half day program designed to provide an update for faculty on current regulatory and other developments in the business environment and the tax profession.

A variety of PwC partners and subject matter experts combine to provide a comprehensive update on topics that are important to the academic community.
