BRICS Women in Tax Network Holds Event on Female Entrepreneurship and Interaction with Tax Administrations

The BRICS Women in Tax Network organized a high‑profile event focusing on female entrepreneurship and the role of tax administrations in supporting women‑led businesses. The ceremony gathered senior representatives from the tax authorities of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa, alongside senior officials from the respective national women’s business chambers. The discussion highlighted statistical data on women‑owned enterprises within the bloc, examined the fiscal challenges they encounter, and explored best‑practice mechanisms for providing targeted tax incentives and compliance assistance. Participants exchanged experiences on mentorship programmes, capacity‑building workshops, and the integration of gender‑responsive tax policies into broader economic strategies. The event also served as a platform for announcing forthcoming collaborative projects, including a joint research initiative on gender‑biased tax burdens and a cross‑border exchange programme for female tax officials. By emphasizing the importance of inclusive tax systems, the BRICS Women in Tax Network reaffirmed its commitment to fostering entrepreneurship among women, strengthening economic resilience, and promoting equitable development across the member states.
