This full-day workshop will be taught by accomplished business development (BD) professionals with deep experience in both large pharmas and small biotechs, providing perspectives from both sides of the table for biopartnering. If you have ever wondered what BD is, how to work efficiently and effectively with your BD team to advance your company’s strategy and programs, or even how to become a BD professional yourself, this is a good workshop for you (and your colleagues in R&D, regulatory, legal, finance, and even executive positions) to attend. At 3:30pm, Wilson Sonsini Technology Transactions partner Farah Gerdes will present, Best Practices in Deal Making. The workshop will also include case studies, group exercises, and conclude with a panel discussion.
