Hannah England and Rebecca Williams Hosted Webinar on Drafting Milestone Triggers for Modern Clinical Landscape

Event
April 30, 2026

Life sciences licensing partner Hannah England and life sciences regulatory & compliance associate Rebecca Williams presented a webinar April 30 on the gap between how clinical development pathways work today and how dealmakers often define milestone events in their legal agreements.

The webinar “Trigger Warning: Drafting Milestone Triggers for the Modern Clinical Landscape” used the recent case of Shareholder Representation Services, LLC v. Astellas Pharma Inc. (Del. Ch. Mar. 2026) to unpack the court’s reasoning, identified the specific drafting choices that proved dispositive, and offered practical strategies for constructing milestone event definitions that keep up with modern clinical trial design.
