Seal the Deal Part II with AWA: IP Strategy Meets Real-World Insights at The Park

Intellectual property has a strategic role in the life of life science business development. But how, and when? The second edition of AWA’s Seal the Deal seminar series brought together an enthusiastic crowd at The Park Forskaren for an engaging session on this topic. The event offered a vibrant mix of networking, expert insights, and lively discussion in a setting that felt both professional and personal.
Building on the success of the first seminar held in May, this session dove deeper into in-licensing, due diligence (DD), and mergers & acquisitions(M&A), all key processes shaping the Swedish life science landscape. Highlights included insightful presentations from Sobi and Alvotech, who shared real-world experiences navigating licensing deals and M&A. Their strong presence in Hagastaden added extra relevance to the conversation. The discussions spanned a broad spectrum of topics while offering detailed, in-depth advice from the panel. Some key takeaways included:
  • The importance of early assessment of both the strength of patent rights as well as the timeline for loss of exclusivity.
  • Due diligence isn’t about finding every imperfection; it’s about identifying the few issues that could change the deal.

The panel featured Tomas Lundquist, VP and Head of IP at Sobi, Ulrika Munter, Senior Patent Counsel at Sobi, and Malcolm Wiberg, Director of Legal Affairs at Alvotech. The discussion was expertly moderated by Louise Jonshammar, Partner and Attorney at Law at AWA, ensuring clarity and depth throughout. The event sparked meaningful dialogue that continued well beyond the formal panel, and some attendees even carried the conversation to Urban Deli after the Canteen Hall closed!

The Park extends a warm thank you to everyone who joined us, and special appreciation to our speakers, moderator, and Fredrik Rahm for organizing such a successful evening. With strong engagement and positive feedback, Seal the Deal is proving to be a growing platform for connecting law, science, and innovation.
