Clifford Chance advises Fosun Kairos on License Agreement with Kite Pharma

Global law firm Clifford Chance has advised Fosun Kairos Biotechnology Co., Ltd. (Fosun Kairos) on its license agreement with Kite Pharma Inc (Kite Pharma).

Fosun Kairos is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shanghai Fosun Pharmaceutical Group (Fosun Pharma). It was previously a joint venture between Fosun Pharma and Kite Pharma, and known as Fosun Kite Biotechnology.

Following Fosun Pharma's recently completed acquisition of Kite Pharma's equity interest in the joint venture, Fosun Kairos completed a thorough amendment and restatement of its license agreement with Kite Pharma.

Shanghai partner Yang Yi said, "We are honoured to have supported Fosun Kairos in this strategic transaction. It continues to demonstrate our ability to deliver comprehensive legal solutions to clients in the life sciences industry."

Yi was supported by New York counsel Daryl Fairbairn and other Clifford Chance colleagues in China.
