Master the Skills Needed to Overcome the Challenges of Modern Paragraph IV Litigation
Each fall, leading pharmaceutical patent litigators for brand name and generic drug companies gather at the Paragraph IV Disputes Master Symposium in Chicago to receive up-to-the-minute information on the latest developments affecting Hatch-Waxman litigation and participate in significant peer-to-peer networking opportunities.
As the industry prepares to address the fallout of global pharmaceutical patent losses of billions of dollars and the impact of evolving law, regulation and policy impacting the Hatch-Waxman landscape, the time for this conference has never been more relevant.
