amfAR SUPPORTER
SINCE 2011
Hublot of America became the Title Sponsor
of amfAR’s annual New York Gala in 2011. Following the event, Hublot created a
limited edition “amfAR 25” watch in honor of amfAR’s 25th year, which was
unveiled at their boutique on Madison Avenue. The watch sold so well
internationally that Hublot created a women’s watch that was unveiled at
amfAR’s 2012 New York Gala, also presented by Hublot. Sales of the
watches will raise more than $100,000 for amfAR.
Hublot also sponsored amfAR’s symposium, “Making
AIDS History: Closing in on a Cure,” in November 2011. Held at the
Mandarin Hotel, New York, the symposium brought together leading scientists,
advocates, journalists, and the extraordinary “Berlin Patient”—the only person to
have been cured of HIV—to discuss the progress and promise of cure-focused
research.

“Research on AIDS is very important for Hublot. We want to share, we want to give back, we want to support amfAR.”
