The Drug, Chemical & Associated Technologies Association (DCAT) is pleased to announce that the speaker for the 80th DCAT Annual Dinner will be the Honorable George Herbert Bush, the forty-first President of the United States. The Dinner will take place on Thursday, March 23, 2006 during DCAT Week at the Waldorf-Astoria in New York City.
President Bush has had a long distinguished career as a public servant not only to Americans, but also to the world at-large. His recent projects include the Bush/Clinton Tsunami Fund and Hurricane Katrina/Rita Relief efforts.
He has worked tirelessly to raise money. He has traveled extensively to visit the affected areas in an effort to bring hope to people and to promote a better understanding of the suffering these disasters have caused.
“We are delighted to have secured a speaker of this caliber for our next Annual Dinner” said Joseph Colleluori, (Lonza) DCAT Sr. Vice President and Annual Dinner Chairperson.
“I am certain our colleagues and guests will be anxious to hear the former President speak on a variety of topics.
I think we can look forward to both an interesting and entertaining evening.”
The appearance of George H. Bush will be the second time a U.S. President has spoken at the DCAT Annual Dinner. Former President Bill Clinton was the guest speaker in 2003.
