Description

News reports have never been as science-oriented as they tend to be these days due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Testing capacities, hospital medical equipment, potential treatments, and vaccine research are front and center, and it seems it is going to stay that way for some time given the direct and tangible stake that the public has in all those discussions. And as a consequence, pharmaceuticals and life sciences stakeholders—major intellectual property (IP) rights holders—are suddenly expected to deliver solutions to solve a major, worldwide health crisis. Our guests today, Marc Holtorf and Emmanuel Gougé are partners at the law firm Pinsent Masons in Munich, Germany, and Paris, France, respectively. They both specialize in IP law, advising international companies on their IP management, development, and enforcement strategies. Mr. Holtorf has been working for the life sciences practice of international law firms for over 20 years, and he is now the Head of IP and Life Sciences for Germany at Pinsent Masons. Mr. Gougé also has over 20 years of experience as an IP attorney, with experience in the UK, Belgium and France, where he leads the Intellectual Property department. They share with us their perspective on the very unique situation the life sciences sector finds itself into these days, in between the private market dynamics and the imperatives of global health policies and the public interest.Every two weeks, on Tuesday, Brand & New gives the floor to inspiring individuals, with a 360-degree vision, to help brand owners, intellectual property lawyers, and marketing and finance professionals (and beyond!) stay curious and agile in an ever-evolving business environment.
