Context

• The Lundin Cancer Fund was created in honour of Mr. Lukas Lundin who died from glioblastoma, a form of brain cancer, in 2022.
• Lukas Lundin was head of the Lundin Group of Companies, a leading force in the mining and oil and gas industries. Entrepreneurial, and always adventurous, he was passionate about the resource industry and its power to transform lives.
• During the course of his illness, it was recognized that there was a considerable lack of awareness and treatment of various types of cancers, particularly brain cancers, as well as a lack of funding of clinical trials and new innovative research. He and his family wanted to change that.
• To fund brain and other cancer treatment and research, the Lundin family and Myriad Canada established the Lundin Cancer Fund at Myriad Canada.

Goals of the Fund

• To finance the very best in Cancer research and treatment globally. The Fund is committed to make high impact, results-oriented investments in cancer research.
• To encourage international collaboration and sharing of scientific data.
