The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 brought about an influx of patent related litigation. Experts postulate that both the financial pressures related to the pandemic and the increasing strength of the technology sector sparked this increase in litigation. Now, almost two years after the start of the pandemic, this surge continues and could be considered a new normal.
While governments and corporations around the globe push forward with vaccine development and potential cures, therapeutics litigation is now receiving attention. Rapid developments in this area are leading to securities and derivatives violations.
