Susanna Heurung discussed current trends in trademark case law and explained their implications for the pharma and life sciences.  Elke Wurster ended the practical part with a detailed overview of currently relevant compliance issues.

We were especially pleased that the participants and speakers took the opportunity to enjoy a Maiwald event highlight of early evening drinks on our roof terrace where, as uaual, lively and stimulating conversation was the order of the day.
