Bayshore HealthCare President Stuart Cottrelle inducted into the Canadian Healthcare Marketing Hall of Fame
MISSISSAUGA, ON (20 November 2017) – Stuart Cottrelle, President of Bayshore HealthCare, was inducted into the Canadian Healthcare Marketing Hall of Fame and presented with the prestigious Phil Diamond Award for exemplary and longstanding community service. He recently received the recognition at the 11th Annual Pharmaceutical Congress, held in Mississauga.
As Canada’s largest stage for leaders in the pharmaceutical industry, the Congress presents industry reflections, ideas, and innovations. Attended by over 200 delegates every year, the Congress is an opportunity to learn, reflect, and network with the industry’s most prominent leaders and visionaries. The awards were established in 2002 to honour healthcare marketers who are an inspiration to others.
Stuart Cottrelle also created the Bayshore Foundation for Empowered Living, which raises funds for local charities that assist those living with illness, injury or aging reclaim or maintain their independence.
“I’m very honoured to have been recognized by the Pharmaceutical Congress,” said Cottrelle. “However, I think we all have an obligation to take care of those less fortunate than ourselves, who are in situations where they are experiencing difficulties. We must continue to work diligently across all areas of health care in this country, whether it’s with our work or on our own time.”
In 2007, Cottrelle was named Ontario’s Health Services & Sciences Entrepreneur of the Year. He has also been rewarded with the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal in 2012, given to citizens and home-care leaders across Canada. The Phil Diamond Award is presented annually to a member of the Canadian life sciences community whose philanthropic or humanitarian work has resulted in positive outcomes.
