Between 1992 and 2001, there was a series of tax research conferences and workshops. Out of these events, informal contacts were made which resulted in the formation of the Tax Research Network. Those early conferences and workshops were supported by the P.D. Leake Trust (a charity associated with the Centre for Business Performance of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales) and Warwick Business School. Since 2002, continuing grant support from the P. D. Leake Trust, as well as the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, the Chartered Institute of Taxation and the IFA Congress Trust, makes possible a range of continuing Tax Research Network activities, and in particular, our annual conference.

Academic tax research can be an isolated activity; researchers are spread very thinly across business schools, law faculties, economics departments and beyond. Activities and events that bring this dispersed group together for co-operative, constructive research are very valuable indeed. The tax researchers who have participated in these events are grateful to the sponsors for enabling them to meet and discuss their research in progress and ideas for future research.
