As A Matter of Tax: What You Need to Know, What You’re Missing, and What’s Changing
Tax is one of those things many people interact with regularly, yet very few fully understand.
Whether you’re employed, freelancing, running a business, creating content online, consulting independently, or building a company, the tax landscape in Kenya is continuing to evolve and for many people, keeping up with what’s required, what’s changing, and what applies to them has become increasingly difficult.
“As A Matter of Tax” is a conversation designed to make that landscape easier to understand.
This session brings together professionals, entrepreneurs, business owners, operators, and experts for a practical and honest discussion around tax responsibilities, compliance, common blind spots, and the realities people and businesses are currently navigating.
The goal is not to create fear around tax, but clarity.
We’ll explore:
• What individuals and businesses are actually required to know
• The common mistakes and assumptions people make
• What has changed in the current tax environment
• How tax affects freelancers, SMEs, creators, professionals, and growing businesses differently
• What people often miss until it becomes a problem
• And how to think about tax more strategically as you build and grow
More than a panel discussion, this will be an interactive conversation where the audience also gets to ask questions, share experiences, and learn from one another.
The intention is simple:
to help people leave the room more informed, more aware, and more confident navigating the realities of tax in Kenya today.
