Sanofi
Present in more than 100 countries around the world and with a workforce of over 100,000 employees, Sanofi is one of the largest pharmaceutical companies globally and currently the leading pharmaceutical business in Panama. Its activities in the country are conducted through medicines, its medical representatives, its research and development of new products and its distribution capacity in the free zone of Colón. The cutting edge work of its regional team of scientists and doctors is supported by a strong legal department, well-versed in all matters related to intellectual property. Headed by Gabriel Tapia Calviño, the unit oversees legal issues in a number of Latin American countries across labour, immigration, commercial and corporate law. An area of strength for the team, according to sources, has been its speed in negotiating, drafting, reviewing and approving commercial contracts on a local and regional level. Standout lawyers in this year’s research include Gabriel Tapia Calviño, Maureen Rey and Stephanie Salas.
