A good concentrated overview of the topic of drafting pharma contracts which is normal for a 2 day course in the subject. I enjoyed the overall experience.

Drafting Commercial Contracts for the Pharmaceutical Industry

I was hoping to have a detailed analysis of all the aspects a legal who works in a pharmaceutical company may encounter and how to deal with it. I must say the webinar was very beyond my expectations and I definitely accomplished my goal (and more!). I am in the pharmaceutical industry just from 2022, and this two days helped me a lot.

My vote is definitely a 10/10: the webinar dealt with all the topics (and more..) I wanted to explore, as I work with it every day. I liked a lot also all the PPT presentations. All speakers were excellent, and the way of explaining very clear and prepared. I found the topics very engaging.

I hoped to improve my knowledge in the field of in-licensing and out-licensing agreements. I am completely satisfied. I got answers to my questions, structured my knowledge, received new, previously unknown to me information Everything was great.

Very concentrated and structured content. All speakers had high level expertise on the topics presented. Useful for in-house practitioners (lawyers, BD) in the pharmaceutical industry as a guide to the main topics in contract drafting. I have expanded my knowledge [on] license agreement issues, IP issues, Co-development agreements.
