About

Provided by Lloreda Camacho & Co

At Lloreda Camacho & Co. we stand out for offering advice that seeks to differentiate ourselves in the life sciences practice through comprehensive support.

This led us to create an interdisciplinary group with experts in the areas of regulation of life products, biotechnology, competition, personal data, compliance, patents, specialized health contracts, supported by a technical team composed of chemists, pharmacists and chemical engineers. As a result, we have become a strategic partner for companies in the life sciences sector. We have extensive experience in all aspects related to the drug cycle, both human and veterinary, as well as in the regulation of drugs, medical devices, commercial and risk aspects, industrial property, access, pricing, and other challenges that the pharmaceutical industry faces during the development of its activities in Colombia.

Our portfolio includes services such as:

  • Measuring risks and offering practical solutions.
  • Management of regional patent portfolios with emphasis on chemical and biotechnological products and test data protection.
