Rapid development of emerging technologies in the medical devices sector has brought new and exciting products to market to the benefit of patients around the world. However the legislators sometimes face difficulties in keeping pace with the technology speed, this leading to the sector facing increased challenges, which we are perfectly equipped to help navigate.
Whether a start-up or a multinational corporation, all businesses are impacted by risks, and benefit from opportunities, arising from intellectual property rights, regulatory and compliance issues, marketing and advertising restrictions, data protection or product liability. The increasing use of mobile or interconnected devices raises new challenges in terms of security and vulnerabilities of medical devices.
We have and continue to closely monitor the developments in the area of medicinal cannabis, one of the hottest topics in the pharmaceutical industry. We watch developments in countries across the globe for many years, including in jurisdictions where medicinal cannabis is regulated and prescribed or many years, as well as jurisdictions where the regulatory regime is more restrictive.
We are now experienced enough to help our clients navigate the complex and evolving legal and regulatory aspects impacting this new industry, as part of the future legal landscape, both in Romania and worldwide.
