Suntech Group honoured as UAE's emerging invoicing innovator
In a landmark moment at UAE TaxTech 2025, Suntech Group was awarded the prestigious title of Emerging Invoicing Innovator, sharing the spotlight with the region's most transformative tax leaders, regulators, and technology pioneers. The event, held under the patronage of key government bodies, celebrated breakthrough achievements in e-invoicing, automation, and compliance intelligence — and Suntech stood tall among innovators for its bold strides in digitising high-value, high-complexity industries. As the UAE accelerates its transition to a fully digital tax regime, e-invoicing is no longer just a compliance mandate — it's a critical enabler of efficiency, transparency, and trust. The Federal Tax Authority's e-invoicing framework, based on global PEPPOL standards, is set to reshape how businesses issue, track, and report transactions. "We're honoured to receive this recognition. E-invoicing is not just a tech upgrade — it's a paradigm shift in how businesses govern, report, and grow," said Pawan Kumar, managing director at Suntech Group. "We're proud to be at the forefront of this change, bringing global-grade infrastructure and local insight to the businesses that need it most." "We see e-invoicing evolving into an intelligent layer — not just transmitting data, but validating, reconciling, and predicting,' added Tushar Gupta, executive director at Suntech Group. "The invoice of tomorrow is a business asset, not a paper trail."
