Dechert’s Corporate Life Sciences Practice Honored at the European Mediscience Awards
June 21, 2023
A Dechert matter – the €130 million financing achieved by French biotech Abivax – has been named winner of the "Capital Market Transaction of the Year Award" at the European Mediscience Awards 2023. The oversubscribed financing round, which was completed in a challenging context for the financing of biotech companies, is the largest private placement ever for a biotech single-listed on Euronext Paris.
Dechert acted as sole legal advisor to Abivax during this transaction. The international corporate and capital markets teams representing Abivax included Paris-based partner Alain Decombe with associates Vianney Toulouse and Mathilde Duchamp, and London-based partners Patrick Lyons and Jennifer Rees, and associate Amy Rees.
