Welcome to Meeting Room 7, a new podcast from Stevens & Bolton.

In this series we will be discussing patent and know how licensing in the life sciences sector. In each episode our IP team will look at different aspects of licensing arrangements, from defining the deal to termination and everything in between. We will share practical tips for licensors and licensees on how to negotiate and draft agreements that work, highlight new developments and trends in the sector and get to the bottom of thorny issues that are often misunderstood.

In this first episode “Defining the deal” we cover:
