Experience
Purchase of a company running pharmacies
Our lawyers represented the purchaser in concluding a contract for the purchase of 100% of shares in a company running pharmacies, taking into account the necessity to obtain UOKiK’s consent for the concentration. The transaction took into account issues arising from demo-geographical restrictions and the so-called “Pharmacy for Pharmacists” regulations.
Regulatory consultancy
We advised pharmacies operating as part of one of the largest franchise chains in Poland in proceedings before regulators related to their operations (both stationary and online). The project concerned the areas of pharmacy advertising and product marketing, transfer of business licenses, post-inspection events, private label and regulatory compliance.
Commercialisation of R&D at a scientific institute
We supported one of the scientific institutes of the Polish Academy of Sciences in the commercialisation of R&D projects. As part of the work we were responsible for securing innovative intellectual property and for developing a legally optimal path of commercialisation using special purpose vehicles.
