Reframing the meaning of taxes | Divakar Vijayasarathy | TEDxThird Ward

Don’t Just Pay Taxes challenges the belief that tax is a punishment for success. Through a deeply personal entrepreneurial story, it reframes tax as a language of alignment between individuals and society. The talk invites leaders to move from fear and resistance to understanding and intentional design. When we stop fighting the system and start understanding it, entirely new possibilities open up. Divakar Vijayasarathy is a global entrepreneur, tax strategist, author, and professor of tax, with over two decades of experience across 40+ countries. As the founder of DVS Global Advisors, he lives through the same cross-border tax and regulatory challenges faced by the entrepreneurs he advises. His philosophy, Tax as Profit, emerged from lived failures and reframes tax from a punishment into a possibility for alignment with societal priorities. His thinking sits at the intersection of entrepreneurship, political economy, and human behavior. Recognized as a New Champion by the World Economic Forum, he contributes to global conversations on the future of enterprise and governance. Through teaching, writing, and speaking, he challenges leaders to stop fighting systems—and start understanding them. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
