EU Biotech Act: The Coming EU IP Shake-Up?

Joana Piriquito Santos writes about the future of biotechnology in the European Union.

Joana Santos is the author of a new blog post published on Wolters Kluwer: IP Law, in which she provides an early analysis of the latest developments surrounding the EU Biotech Act. This legislative package has the potential to profoundly reshape the biotechnology innovation ecosystem and the intellectual property protection regime across the European Union.

In her article, she explores the key changes that may result from this legislative initiative, as well as the risks and opportunities that companies, researchers, and industry professionals should already begin to consider in a rapidly evolving regulatory context.
