Being at the helm of a life sciences startup can be the thrill of a lifetime – but one that presents unique challenges. To ensure that your next big idea gets off the ground, it is crucial to understand the legal issues that arise when launching and growing a startup.
Join Foley Hoag's Jumpstart Series, which combines practical sessions for entrepreneurs on real-world do's and don'ts of starting a business with a chance to network with local peers. Our sessions are designed to help startup leaders across the biotech, pharma and medical device ecosystem start off strong and with the legal and regulatory knowledge needed for long-term success.
Developing an IP Strategy
A well developed IP portfolio is essential to future success. Learn how to assess whether your idea should be protected under patent, trade secret, trademark, or other IP law; how to determine if there are any legal or regulatory barriers to commercialization; and the best way to market and promote your idea.
