Past event: BD&L Summit for Life Sciences

Unlock the potential of a deal through optimizing business development activities and transactional excellence

The launch of our BD&L Summit for Life Sciences was so successful last year that the 2nd BD&L Summit returns to serve as an open forum for cross-functional business development teams to share valuable insights and actionable strategies on successfully managing alliances, licensing agreements and M&A deals. This year, the conference will go one step further and provide two tracks dedicated to the Legal/Transactions and Business Development areas.
