September 1, 2021
virtual conference

IPR Connexion: Intellectual Property Rights Conference for the Pharmaceutical Industry virtual conference will bring together pharmaceutical industry and intellectual property law experts, like Pharmaceutical Litigation Chair Steven Coyle, to deliberate on strategies to infinitely deliver efficient patent protection for new drugs and treatments in the competitive marketplace.

For several years, global pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical patent law has been progressing with the rapidly changing battleground – and 2020 was no exception. With uncertain times and an economic crisis, the pharmaceutical industry is one of the evergreen industries in today’s high paced world. The global pandemic steered in extraordinary blockades for the pharma and biopharma industry. It is extremely vital to understand the new directions the judicial courts are incorporating globally. IPR is a prerequisite for pharma companies for identification, planning, commercialization, and protection of invention. 

Steve Coyle is a Partner and co-chairs the firm's Litigation Department. He is a trial lawyer with more than 25 years' experience litigating and trying complex disputed matters, and specializes in patent and all varieties of intellectual property litigation. Steve’s areas of focus include ANDA and Hatch-Waxman litigation, where he has represented the rights of generic drug manufacturers and helped them to bring products to market.
