Join us at the Taylor Wessing Pharma forum for a day of insights, discussion and inspiration from European leaders in pharma law. A one-day virtual conference, the Pharma forum will showcase the legal issues that matter to the pharmaceuticals and biologics industries.
It has been an extraordinary 18 months, in which these sectors have rarely left the headlines. Against this backdrop, our specialists in intellectual property, data privacy, regulatory and product safety law from the UK and EU will round up the key legal issues and developments of the moment.
Special guests George Moore (Viatris) and Sir Robin Jacob will also be on hand to offer their views on the direction in which the pharma industries are going and the legal issues that they think will be faced.
Please register to confirm your place.
