About

‘Andreas Schillack, head of legal for Sandoz Europe’, a nominating source writes, ‘covers all aspects of pharma in-house legal counselling, leveraging upon his more than 20 years of experience in the pharmaceutical industry. His company has been the only pharmaceutical company that has reacted with a long-term strategy to tender procedures of public health funds as well as successful legal defence in cases of claims arising within tender proceedings’. This quote provides insight into the excellent reputation enjoyed by Schillack and his senior leadership. There are also mentioned a number of successful projects Schillack has been involved in over the past years, listing these as ‘defense against product liability claims, several German and European business development, licensing and divestiture deals, successful product launches, unfair competition proceedings, market access and pricing and reimbursement proceedings for pharmaceutical products, and legal compliance initiatives’. Feeding into this excellent record, Schillack provides for a productive internal atmosphere, spirit of collaboration and trust, as well as a European subject matter expert and work stream matrix structure. This drives forward both the European legal team’s exchange and proactive, pragmatic support to business functions. All this has been in conjunction with a comprehensive global transformation and the implementation of several knowledge-sharing tools as part of a digital expansion.
