Industry Series: Transfer Pricing for Technology

It used to be that the technology industry was comprised of a few companies in Silicon Valley. Today, though, technology is a key aspect of nearly every company and every industry. When it comes to determining how to price intercompany transactions, there is no shortage of complication. Whether it’s intellectual property, research and development, or the reach of the network, figuring out where the value is being created by technology can feel like aiming at a moving target, which is part of what makes transfer pricing in this industry so dynamic.

As part of our Industry Series, Exploring Transfer Pricing tours different industries with specialists to discuss some of what makes their industry of focus unique, and how that might impact the transfer pricing.

Our host Brittany Hardin Tanguay is joined by Brad Parker (Principal from Silicon Valley and the US Transfer Pricing Leader for the Technology Industry), and David Unger (Managing Director from Seattle), to discuss some of the challenges and considerations of practicing transfer pricing for technology.
