WELCOMEIP Life Sciences Exchange (IPLS) 2015 arrived at a critical time for the industry, with landmark decisions and IP developments emerging daily from the pan- European framework. IPLS explored a range of crucial issues, including strategic planning to protect patents whilst engaging in the UPC, pathways to bringing generic drugs to the US market, integration of biosimilars and navigating new perimeters in patentable products influenced by key case law. In particular, IPLS focused on how such issues interacted with pharmaceuticals, biotechnology and chemicals companies. After all, these issues are critical components of an industry where Life Sciences companies are keen to protect innovation and retain their competitive advantage.
To address the challenges that come with protecting innovation and retaining competitive advantage, we brought together 50 CIPOs, Heads, Directors and VPs of IP and Patent for a packed two days of BrainWeave’s, group discussions, business meetings and informal networking opportunities.
Building on the success of our annual cross-industry Global IP Exchange, this forum of senior IP leaders was a great opportunity to share experiences and projects from across pharmaceuticals, biotechnology and chemicals.
This report will offer you an insight into the key themes and takeaways from the Exchange, as well an exclusive look at what is happening in the industry.

2016 IP LIFE SCIENCES EXCHANGE SESSION HIGHLIGHTS
IP Enforcement Challenges in Emerging Markets Gabriel Kleiman, Assistant General Counsel, Pfizer Inc.Gabriel focused attendees’ attention on five points throughout his global IP enforcement presentation: • Have you considered the following when enforcing your patents in
emerging economies?• Will your patent be granted? If so, will it have sufficient scope to cover
your product?• Is your patent a reliable property right?• Will you be able to enforce your patent?• If you lose an enforcement action, have you considered whether there
would there be negative consequences?
Navigating New Perimeters in Patentable Products Influenced by Key Case Law: Stem CellsDr Ian Bryan, Senior IP Counsel, GE Healthcare Life SciencesIan focused on the potential of stem cells and ultimately what is patentable in stem cell innovations across Europe. In noting key case law such as Enlarged Board of Appeal (EBA): G2/06 Stem Cells/WARF, Ian ultimately concluded that:• Inventions based on adult stem cells are patentable• hESC based inventions based on parthenogenesis after 5 June 2003* are
patentable• hESC based inventions on Single Cell Blastomere Biopsy after 10 January
2008** are patentable• Induced pluripotent stem cell based inventions are patentable• hESC inventions exclusively necessitating human embryo destruction are
NOT patentable
Mapping the Pathway to Successfully Conducting Multijurisdictional LitigationDr.Toni Santamaria, Head of IP, Europe, AccordToni’s session was of strategic interest to those delegates involved in multi-jurisdictional litigation. In particular, Toni suggested successful litigation rested on your team, commercial goals and strategy and had to consider the following:• Plan strategy but be ready to change the plans• Align IP with business interests• Consider all the costs and risks involved• Appoint the best possible team
