World AIDS Day—a lot has changed in 19 years

Today, December 1, is World AIDS Day. Edelman Vancouver has been working with the BC Centre for Excellence in HIV/AIDS for 19 years. Yep . . . 19 years. A client-agency relationship knocking on two decades is virtually unheard of in our business – and I consider it one of our proudest accomplishments in Edelman Vancouver’s 29-year history. This is a relationship built on trust, excellent client service, a passion for the client’s business, and a belief that the researchers at the Centre are helping to change the world. The Centre’s Dr. Julio Montaner is one of the world’s foremost minds in this field and his work has helped turn HIV/AIDS from a death sentence to a manageable, treatable disease (Globe and Mail reporter @rodmickleburgh tweeted today that Montaner should be nominated for the Nobel Prize in Medicine. I would add my vote if asked). It’s been an honour to play a small role in Montaner’s and the Centre’s success. After 19 years, today seemed a natural day to say thanks.
