The European Union’s new Product Liability Directive (PLD) represents a major overhaul of product liability law across the EU. It fundamentally changes the risk landscape for companies placing products – whether physical or digital – on the EU market. In this session, our panel will provide an overview of key provisions of the PLD; discuss some of the major risks the PLD poses for biopharmaceutical, medical device, and digital health companies; and highlight some initial steps companies can take to start mitigating risk.
