On October 29, the 16th edition of the Hippocrate Awards brought together more than 500 people over the course of the day at Théâtre St-James in Montréal. From the Circle of Fellows and Hippocrate Council meetings to the cocktail reception and gala, people from different sectors came together to share their experiences, build connections and celebrate projects that create value in health.

The Circle of Fellows takes shape
