Focusing on medicinal products and medical devices, this book follows the value chain from the bench to the market and includes numerous graphs and tables to summarize and illustrate key points. It provides readers from different backgrounds with practical advice and a glossary, and includes references to further information. An important part addresses cross-cutting issues relevant for any phase of a product life cycle, such as intellectual property rights, commercial agreements, dispute resolution, competition law, data protection, and financing. Although the book focuses on Swiss law, it takes into account the international scope of life sciences-related transactions by referencing European Union law and presenting selected topics relevant for life sciences stakeholders operating in the USA and China.
