Our Partner Charles To and Senior Associate Delphine Tse delivered a three-hour guest lecture for the Certificate for Module on Regulatory Systems of Pharmaceutical Products and Medical Devices in the Greater Bay Area at HKU Space. Leveraging our deep expertise in advising pharmaceutical and life-science clients, from emerging biotech start-ups to global industry leaders, on regulatory strategy, market entry, compliance and IP protection, we enriched the session with practical insights and real-world case studies tailored to the dynamic GBA landscape.

Our deep expertise in IP protection served as the backbone of the session. We guided students from an introductory overview through the intricacies of patents, trade secrets, trademarks, copyrights and registered designs, and explored best practices in licensing and IP enforcement. We also tackled the fast-evolving intersection of IP and AI, ending with a dynamic Q&A that brought real-world scenarios to life.

At ELLALAN, we are proud to nurture the next generation of GBA regulatory specialists, equipping them with both foundational knowledge and strategic insights. Huge thanks to HKU Space for the invitation, and congratulations to all participants for their thoughtful questions and keen engagement!
