Series - BIO Benefits

With the majority of biological studies conducted in academic settings but nearly all innovative new drug clinical trials sponsored by industry, improving translational research success rates for commercialization is critical to bringing new treatments to patients. Surveys of academic tech transfer offices and the biopharma industry executives working on such alliances cite as obstacles two highly controllable factors: disagreement about alliance performance metrics and misalignment of deal terms priorities. This panel discusses best practices for removing such obstacles to accelerate more promising ideas into clinical development for patients.

BIO's updated 2023 report, "U.S. Biotechnology Translational Research: Partnership Models, Management Principles, and Best Practices," is available for download at the link below.  The webinar also summarizes major findings from that BIO report as context for the panel discussion and audience Q&A.

During this webinar, panelists discuss strategies for biotechnology companies to manage economic downturns and weakened investor interest in the biotech industry. Our expert panel of industry leaders share their insights and experiences on how to maintain momentum and emerge stronger during periods of economic uncertainty.

This webinar is designed to provide practical advice and actionable strategies that can be implemented immediately. The panel covers the following topics:

• Effective communication and investor relations strategies during economic downturns

• Actions biotechs can take to cut costs without sacrificing innovation and growth

• How to pitch to investors during weakened investor interest periods

U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) statistics suggest that enforcement will be a top government priority in 2023, including for pharma/life sciences. Warning or untitled letters from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will serve as ammunition for DOJ cases. Statements about product safety will be heavily scrutinized.

Do you know what to watch out for? Has your company trained its employees and marketing agencies on how to appropriately implement the requirements for promotion? What activities require extra vigilance? The prior downturn in enforcement can be linked to the development of a response to COVID-19, which diverted government resources across the board. Now trends suggest the FDA, DOJ, and Office of Inspector General (OIG) will return to active healthcare enforcement in 2023 for violations of the Food Drug and Cosmetic Act (FDCA), False Claims Act and the Anti-Kickback Statute in part attributable to the goal of obtaining additional financial recoveries.

This webinar hosted by the Biotechnology Innovation Organization (BIO) has these learning objectives:
—Understand the current trends for government enforcement
—Dissect the compliance implications of increased enforcement on the industry
—Identify specific cases that are clear examples for company concern
—Isolate the key principles for avoiding violations
