Cycle for Survival Cancer Research Partners


Keyvan Azami manages the HSBC Global Banking and Markets in the Americas for Fixed Income and Equity Businesses division, as well as HSBC’s Global Fixed Income Electronic Trading Technology group. An active philanthropist, Keyvan Azami takes part in many charity events, such as Light the Night and Cycle for Survival.

Cycle for Survival is an annual charity event that generates money for rare blood cancer research. Cycle for Survival raised $34 million in 2017 alone, $9 million of which was given to the Equinox Innovation Initiative, a global leader in MSK research. An additional $5 million went to the Human Oncology and Pathogenesis Program (HOPP), while the Centers for Hematologic Malignancies and Epigenetics, the Functional Genomics Initiative, and the Center for Molecular Oncology all received at least $3 million to fund ongoing research efforts. Other contributions were made to general areas of research, such as pediatric services and sarcoma research.
