Tune into this episode of Covington’s Life Sciences Audiocast, where Winsome Cheung and George Jenkins discuss the key trends in Life Sciences Transactions for 2024. The speakers discuss the outlook for deal-making in Life Sciences and predictions for deal trends, including in relation to nuclear medicine, GLP-1, antibody-drug conjugates and other modalities. The speakers also discuss some of the key legal considerations that are coming into increasing focus for Life Sciences Transactions, such as competition/antitrust considerations and the Inflation Reduction Act. This is the first Life Sciences Transactions audiocast for 2024, and we plan to release further audiocasts over the course of this year that dive deeper into some of the above topics.
