IRCM Foundation
Annual Gala
December 2, 2025 | Grand Quai of the Port of Montreal
A key event
for leaders
of the business
community
It is with great pleasure that we thank all the participants of our Annual Gala, held on Tuesday, December 2, 2025.
A record-breaking $1,308,514 was raised to support life-changing research.
Thanks to the generosity and commitment of our partners, sponsors, and guests, we are paving the way for major breakthroughs in the fight against life-altering diseases such as cancer, diabetes, neurological disorders, and inflammatory or immune system diseases.
This success is based on the commitment of a strong committee of ambassadors, driven by honorary co-chairs who served as true catalysts for this mobilization:
Luc Rodier, President and CEO, Guillevin International
Sylvain Corbeil, Associate, Corporate and Business Development, RCGT
Jean-François Courville, President, Quebec, Scotiabank
Thank you again for your support, and we look forward to seeing you at the IRCM Foundation's annual gala on November 24, 2026.
