  3. Case-study 1 Donations & grants • You are the MD of the company “Imagine” and you are visiting a Paediatric Oncologist KOL at a prominent medical school. The professor is a recognized authority in the country and also an advisor to the MoH on reimbursement matters. • The professor’s husband is a successful businessman and is active in a major charity that seeks to improve patient education to help with the detection and treatments in Paediatric Cancer. • During your visit, the professor explains that she is seeking funding for an exciting new research initiative involving your company’s products where she will be the Principal Investigator. She urges you to consider supporting her research efforts. • As the visit comes to a close, the professor mentions that her husband heads up a charity that is entering a new fundraising cycle; she expresses her hope that your company will be able to continue its very generous support for the work of the charity again this year. • On your way home, you are briefed on the status of the government’s upcoming reimbursement decision that will have important implications to your company’s product as well as three competitive products. The professor is expected to participate in advising the government on its decision.
