Abstract
The emergence of real-world data and new digital technologies is fueling growth in the life sciences sector. This trend is resulting to increased investor interest and record funding. In this regard, life sciences businesses are now turning to alternative financing options to fund their growth. These include royalty financing, initial public offerings (IPOs), and collaborative arrangements.
However, companies that enter these types of financing must be wary of potential drawbacks and reporting challenges. They must clearly understand and comply with the updated rules related to these alternatives. Counsel to businesses must develop an advanced strategic approach to leverage potentials and avoid legal issues.
Join a panel of key thought leaders and practitioners assembled by The Knowledge Group as they provide the audience with an in-depth discussion of these financing alternatives for the life sciences industry. Speakers will dig deeper as they analyze critical issues surrounding this topic. They will also offer practical tips and strategies to maximize its potentials in light of the recent regulatory developments.
