A Message from the COO,
Mark Saunders

It goes without saying that our conference in London was a tremendous success with over 150 delegates, family and guests attending. My grateful thanks go to all those who attended and especially to Susanne Martius for all her hard work. Being together with Susanne, Kathy, Lois and Slava for the first time was also tremendously important for Integra and the help of the whole team in making the conference such a success is deeply appreciated. We are also very grateful to Robert Moore and his team from our host firm, Bright Grahame Murray, for all their support.

Please take the time to look at some of the photographs and videos that have been shared by our members either on the website, WhatsApp group or on LinkedIn.

So now we look forward to 2023. The dates for our conference in Dallas, Texas are already agreed as May 18th to the 20th. From June 15th to the 17th we will be meeting in Zurich Switzerland. In September the Cross-Border Tax Workshop will take place in Berlin and our next Global Conference will take place in October in Singapore. The dates for these last two events are still being finalised

I'm sure that everyone who attended the conference in London will attest to the fact that nothing can compare with meeting your fellow Integra members face to face to build trusting relationships and lasting friendships which will lead to more cooperation between our members and referrals of professional work. Please mark your calendars now for next year�s events when I look forward to meeting you all again in person.
