Drafting Commercial Contracts for the Pharmaceutical Industry

In such a highly regulated industry and in these turbulent and uncertain times, understanding the key challenges of negotiating and drafting an effective and watertight contract on an international level are complex topics. They can be difficult for even the most well-equipped in-house lawyer and most often it is not the lawyer in the driving seat.

Commercial managers from all areas of the pharmaceutical industry are leading negotiations and drafting and managing key contracts on a daily basis. It is vital that both legal counsel and commercial executives not only have the key skills and tactics to create a win:win scenario but also the knowledge to ensure any agreement is within current laws and regulations. The alternative is the exposure of the organisation to unnecessary risk and costly disputes.

The programme will:

• Deliver an in-depth examination of intellectual property issues that affect pharmaceutical industry agreements
• Focus on competition regulations pertinent to pharmaceutical industry agreements
• Analyse the commercial and legal issues affecting pharmaceutical industry agreements
• Examine collaboration and licensing agreements
