Robert A. Smith, CPA*
Founder

For more than 15 years, I’ve helped international technology, life science, and advanced manufacturing companies navigate US federal, state, local, and international tax rules. I’ve worked with hundreds of clients and seen first-hand what works and which pitfalls to avoid. I founded Continuo International Tax so European entrepreneurs don’t have to learn the American system the hard way.

I named Continuo International Tax after basso continuo, the improvised accompaniment in Baroque music. Skilled basso continuo musicians use their experience and judgment to support and harmonize the beautiful melodies of the soloists. In the same way, Continuo International Tax acts as the experienced accompanist to your US market entry masterpiece, supporting your vision on a solid tax and compliance foundation.

I am a licensed Certified Public Accountant* in Massachusetts, New York, and Texas and I serve clients throughout the US and internationally. My experience includes building international tax practices at large accounting firms, advising hundreds of clients on US domestic and international tax rules, incentives, and reporting, and working closely with chambers of commerce and my professional network to support foreign direct investment in America.

I live in Groton, Massachusetts, and work closely with European and global tech, life science, and manufacturing companies expanding into Boston and beyond. I look forward to connecting with you!
