Our 2010 Annual Meeting will be held in Americas “cradle of liberty” Philadelphia. The elegant Westin Philadelphia Hotel has been chosen to host our meeting addressing the most salient issues on international tax. The Westin is located in the heart of the downtown and historic area of Philadelphia. Situated Rittenhouse Square the hotel is connected to the offices and shops of Liberty Place and is in close proximity to the greatest concentration of American history - Independence Park.

We anticipate over 250 tax practitioners to attend our meeting. As Philadelphia is less than a two hour train ride for delegates coming from both New York and Washington, we expect strong attendance from both of these cities. Our Philadelphia Committee is preparing a program that is sure to attract representatives from our corporate tax community, accounting firms, government departments and academic institutions especially those practicing on the Eastern Seaboard.

Conference Marketing

Our conference marketing initiatives will be focused on ensuring we build attendance in all of our member segments. Our members will receive email blasts leading up to the Meeting. Save the Date cards with the program outline will be mailed to our members within a 300 mile radius of Philadelphia.

Our IFAUSA.org website will feature specific elements of the Annual Meeting Program and of course a “rolling scroll” of our sponsors leading up to the Meeting in February.

Networking Environment

Our goal is to provide an enhanced networking environment for our corporate sponsors and delegates. All of the Refreshment Breaks and the Thursday Evening reception will be held in the exhibit area adjacent to our Seminar Session Room. This will increase the opportunity for our sponsors to meaningfully engage with delegates who are particularly interested in their products and services.
