Technology, travel, and trade have created a global neighborhood in which
disease knows no borders.
The Summit is guided by members of an Executive Committee and Summit Advisory Group. The Summit Senior Advisory Group provides leadership in a number of ways: members provide strategic guidance and input on the Summit theme, agenda, and invited organizations and individuals. Members also play a lead role in Summit sponsorship through financial support from their own organization. The Executive Committee is a decision-making sub-group of the Senior Advisory Group.
On behalf of the Pacific Health Summit, we would like to thank George Russell, Jr., and Bill Gates, Sr., for their vision and leadership as the founding co-chairs of the Summit's advisory group.
Current members of the Summit’s Senior Advisory Group and Executive Committee are listed below. The current Chair of the Pacific Health Summit's Executive Committee is Mark Walport, Director of the Wellcome Trust.
