Learning about Leukaemia drugs

I reply to the email from the lady running the NGO. She would welcome any assistance in securing supplies of Leukaemia drugs, which are very expensive and beyond the reach of their budget at the moment.

I mention that I have located a manufacturer of the generic Leukaemia drug Imanitib – The Orion Group, who are based in Bangladesh – adding that I am unsure how best to approach them. 

Novartis, are based in Switzerland, and for their part, they run the GIPAP programme, offering the generic version of Glivec. 

Meanwhile, our rental offer on the office in Dublin has been accepted. This is great news and means I can now see if I can find a third guy to share the office, in order to keep the costs to a minimum.
