IN-PERSON CHAPTER EVENT

EXPLORE THE EQUITY AND TAX LANDSCAPE FOR 2026

Join your local share plan community on 25 June at the KPMG offices for an engaging discussion on the latest trends and tax developments shaping equity incentives in the Netherlands, followed by networking drinks.

As the competition for talent continues to intensify, organisations are adapting their equity strategies to remain attractive in a rapidly evolving market. During this session, we will explore the impact of new stock option rules for startups and scale-ups, and discuss how larger and listed companies can continue to compete effectively in attracting and retaining key talent.

The session will also examine current market trends in equity incentives and Management Incentive Plans (MIPs) within the Dutch investment landscape. In addition, we will unpack recent and upcoming tax developments relating to Box 2 and Box 3, with a focus on the implications for employee investors, entrepreneurs, and long-term value creation.

Speakers: Tara Hagen, Aon | Kate Hall, Aon | Kelcie Urstad, Aon | Lamont Walker, Applied Intunition

Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming the equity compensation landscape, creating both new opportunities and new challenges for equity professionals. From streamlining day-to-day administration to reshaping talent markets and compensation strategies, AI is becoming an increasingly important topic across the industry.

Join the “AI Club for Equity” session, live in San Francisco and streamed in Santa Clara, where industry practitioners will share practical insights into how AI is currently being used — and where its limitations still exist — within equity administration and operations.

The session will also explore emerging data on AI-related talent premiums and examine how companies are adapting equity plan design to attract and retain AI-critical talent across both private and public organisations.

Designed as an interactive and forward-looking discussion, this session will provide attendees with practical examples, market perspectives, and valuable peer insights into one of the most significant shifts currently impacting the equity compensation profession.
