On 23 November 2011, UNA-Canada will celebrate the vision, commitment and remarkable achievements of an outstanding Canadian entrepreneur, innovator and humanitarian - Mr. Leslie Dan, the founder of Novopharm Ltd., a company that grew to be Canada's second largest manufacturer of safe and affordable generic medications before being sold to Teva Pharmaceuticals Industries Ltd. in 2000; Viventia Biotechnologies Inc., a company dedicated to the development of cancer medications; and the Canadian Medicine Aid Programme that provides life-saving medicines to the sick in the poorest countries.

The evening will honour Mr. Dan not only for his leadership in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors, but for his dedication to corporate responsibility, education, development, human health and philanthropy.

UNA-Canada is delighted to be honouring such an extraordinary Canadian and global citizen - and his legacy of successful companies that continues to explore, innovate, excel and build upon his vision - at a time when the UN and the global community is celebrating the important achievements that chemistry and chemical innovation bring to our lives, our communities and our world.

Join us, along with other global citizens, leaders, friends and colleagues, and enjoy cocktails and dinner at the Liberty Grand, as we pay tribute to Mr. Dan and mark the UN's International Year of Chemistry.

Funds raised will support the United Nations Association in Canada youth and education programmes.
