This webinar focuses on the new era of shareholder engagement and its impact on life sciences companies. While the overall industry has unique operating and investor characteristics, public life science companies are increasingly confronting many of the same trends affecting their more conventional corporate peers, including investment stewardship, ESG and engaged shareholders of all types, from institutions to traditional activist investors.
