Put on by The Max Foundation in August of 2018, the Max Global Experience Uganda was a fundraising and engagement opportunity for patient leaders, industry partners, and Max team members to come together to expand access to cancer treatment in Africa. The global experience included an all-day symposium, a visit to the Uganda Cancer Institute, and a “last mile” walk along the Nile in solidarity with patients across Africa. The video was put together using interviews filmed during the experience and includes patient leaders, industry partners, and Max team members alike.
