An Executive Roundtable hosted by Org and Avalara
The EU’s VAT in the Digital Age (ViDA) reforms and the rapid expansion of e-invoicing mandates will fundamentally change how organisations manage transaction reporting, VAT compliance and financial data across Europe. With further regulatory developments emerging – including the AI Act – the compliance landscape is becoming increasingly complex and more data-driven.
While often approached as a tax or regulatory initiative, the implications extend far beyond compliance. These developments will influence cash visibility, financial control, operational efficiency and how organisations use compliance programmes to create wider business value.
Hosted jointly by Org and Avalara, this executive roundtable brings together a small group of senior finance and transformation leaders to explore how organisations can navigate these changes – and how regulatory requirements can also create opportunities to improve working capital, operational resilience and finance performance.
Why Attend
This roundtable will explore how organisations can turn regulatory change into operational and financial advantage, including:
- What ViDA-readiness means in practice for organisations
- How e-invoicing and digital reporting will reshape finance operations
- The implications for cash flow visibility, DSO and working capital
- Balancing regulatory delivery with business-as-usual priorities
- Lessons emerging from organisations already preparing for these changes
The discussion will focus on practical insight, peer experience and real operational considerations.
Who should attend
This roundtable is designed for senior finance leaders responsible for financial performance, transformation and compliance, including:
- CFOs
- Finance Directors

- Finance Transformation Leaders
Particularly those operating across multiple entities or jurisdictions with EU trading activity.
