CHICAGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–lt;a href=”https://twitter.com/hashtag/SmithBucklin70?src=hash” target=”_blank”gt;#SmithBucklin70lt;/agt;–SmithBucklin – the leading association management and services company
that began 70 years ago in Chicago – is pleased to announce that Carol
McGury, executive vice president, Event and Education Services, has been
named to the 2019 Notable Women Executives Over 50 list in Crain’s
Chicago Business magazine.

The prestigious list recognizes women executives who are leading
successful businesses across industries in Chicago (the complete list is here).
“A generation ago, women in the C-suite were a novelty and, before that,
they were few and far between,” Crain’s said in introducing the list.
“(The list) should provide encouragement and inspiration for the next
generation of women moving up.”

“This recognition is so richly deserved – both for Carol and for our
company,” said SmithBucklin President & CEO Matt Sanderson. “For more
than 30 years, Carol has driven success on behalf of our client
organizations, team members, and our company overall. She is a strong
and vital voice within our company and on our management team.”

For 70 years and counting, SmithBucklin has been at the forefront of
helping associations create value for their stakeholders and foster
loyal communities of engaged members. With SmithBucklin at their side,
these nonprofit organizations make a difference in nearly every industry
and field. They expand economic opportunities, educate workforces,
improve and save lives, create and protect jobs, and promote the
exchange of information. This significant impact is largely due to
associations’ ability to bring like-minded people together in
face-to-face meetings and live events.

“Carol continues to build on our solid commitment to provide unique
event experiences and education that help achieve the missions of our
client organizations,” Sanderson said. “Additionally, she is passionate
about mentoring and coaching the next generation of event business
strategists – both in our company and in the meetings and events
community.”

Here’s what her colleagues had to say:

  • “Carol is an amazing strategic thinker. I envy the way she can distill
    the essence of a situation or problem quickly and make an excellent
    judgment call about what should be done next. She is calm in the face
    of any crisis. She is tough in business yet fair, and she has an
    excellent sense of humor, which she uses expertly to lighten
    challenging or tense situations,” said Christine Murphy Peck, senior
    director of SmithBucklin Education & Learning Services.
  • “Carol is completely committed to delivering value to our clients
    every single day. It is always top of mind and she encourages the rest
    of us to never lose focus on the importance of creating value. When
    our team delivers event experiences that ensure our clients achieve
    their missions and visions as well as excite and inspire event
    participants, we are having impact and making a difference!” said
    Buffy Levy, events director.
  • “Carol has a gift for helping people be creative. Any time I am
    struggling with how to address a challenge, I imagine what it would be
    like to discuss it with Carol. Once I think about how she would try to
    address it, I’ve got my solution,” said Alexis Bauer Kolak, education
    director.
  • “I feel so lucky to work alongside somebody with such tenacity and
    purpose in all she does to be a leader in our industry. Carol has
    followed her passion and inspires others to do the same. She
    encourages and fosters an environment to take risks, lean in, and go
    after opportunities. As a woman, it is especially inspiring to see the
    path she has carved for herself and others,” said Mary Smith,
    operations director for SmithBucklin Event Services.

McGury joined SmithBucklin in 1988 as an entry-level associate. She
quickly rose in the ranks eventually serving as the executive director
of SHARE and several other technology user communities. She also served
as the strategic account director for PTC (Parametric Technology
Corporation), supporting its global event strategy and expanded North
American Community Event. In 2013, she was promoted to executive vice
president, Event and Education Services, and became a member of
SmithBucklin’s senior management team.

“I am so honored to be recognized among these women leaders in Chicago’s
business community,” McGury said about the Crain’s listing. “I
particularly want to thank my incredible team as well as my colleagues
whose dedication to serving our clients’ needs is extraordinary. I am
proud to serve alongside each of you.”

Carol comes from a family where service to others is paramount – her
father served the Chicago Fire Department for more than 30 years – and
she continues this tradition today. She is the current chair of the PCMA
Foundation, overseeing scholarship awards and industry research for
business event strategists. She also serves as a member of several
industry boards, including the Marriott Hotel Advisory Board and
Destinations International Partner Advisory Council, and she serves as
co-chair of INCON (an international consortium of association and event
management companies). In her personal time, she serves as board
secretary of the Helping Hand Center, a nonprofit serving children and
adults with developmental disabilities in the greater Chicago area.

She holds a Bachelor of Arts in communications with a minor in business
from St. Xavier University in Chicago and a master’s degree in public
service administration from DePaul University in Chicago.

With its submission of a Pre-IND Meeting Request Letter, Innocan initiates the regulatory process with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the approval of its prolonged CBD release technology for human use

HERZLIYA, Israel and CALGARY, AB, April 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Innocan Pharma Corporation (CSE: INNO) (FSE: IP4) (OTCQB: INNPF) (“Innocan” or the “Company”), is pleased to announce that is has reached a key milestone: the Company submitted its letter of application for a Pre-IND meeting, the first phase in the FDA approval process in the United States for Innocan’s Liposome-Cannabidiol (LPT-CBD) injectable treatment of chronic pain.

With the global market for pain therapeutics widely expected to exceed US$100 billion by 2032[1], LPT therapy which requires only one single monthly subcutaneous injection, is positioned as a highly attractive alternative to opioid-based approaches. Opioids have and continue to take a significant human toll in recent years, with more than three-quarters of drug overdose deaths in the United States involving opioids, according to the United States Center for Disease Control and Prevention[2].

Innocan’s therapy has shown consistent efficacy in multiple pre-clinical trials in recent years of it’s LPT-CBD injectable treatment through prolonged and controlled release of CBD in animals with chronic pain conditions. Innocan’s Pre-IND Meeting Request Letter to the FDA is a key milestone and important first step in seeking approval of its LPT-CBD therapy for use in humans. At the Pre-IND meeting, the objective will be to obtain guidance from the FDA on the preclinical and clinical development plan, enabling the initiation of an Investigational New Drug (IND) program in the United States.

Iris Bincovich, CEO of Innocan, commented: “We are extremely excited to embark on this next stage in the development of LPT-CBD injectables, this is a major Milestone for Innocan Pharma. We have invested significant effort and many thousands of person-hours in its research and development, accumulating a wealth of preclinical data that will serve as the foundation for our participation in the FDA process. This is a key milestone for Innocan and marks our first step towards the FDA’s recognition of our technology. We see significant potential for our therapy, with an addressable market for pain management therapeutics expected to exceed US $100 billion by 2032, and we look forward to tapping that.

Dr. Joseph Pergolizzi, Innocan’s FDA Advisory Board Member, added:

“We have worked hard to catalogue the data collected as part of our animal LPT therapy testing program and prepare it for the FDA. We look forward to working under FDA guidance, with the goal of completing the review process as quickly and efficiently as possible. We believe that Innocan’s unique treatment method, if and when it should become FDA-approved has the potential of being a highly valuable non-opioid addition in the medical arsenal of the management of chronic pain.”
