About The H. Neil Mallon Award
Named in honor of the Council’s founder, the H. Neil Mallon Award is presented annually to individuals who have excelled at promoting the international focus of North Texas. Funds raised from this event support the Council’s public and education programming, international exchanges, and diplomatic services.
You are cordially invited to join us on the evening of Wednesday, November 1 at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Dallas to honor Ken, with Dinner Co-Chairs Ambassador Robert W. Jordan, Kevin Murphy, Ambassador Jeanne L. Phillips, and Michele Wheeler, Honorary Dinner Co-Chairs Dr. Bobby Lyle and Lottye Brodsky-Lyle, and Host Committee Co-Chairs Michael Dee and Brendan McGuire.
The evening will feature a keynote discussion about Russia’s war in Ukraine, geopolitics, finance, and energy markets with financier and best-selling author Bill Browder. As the founder and CEO of Hermitage Capital Management, Browder was the largest foreign investor in Russia until 2005, when he was denied entry after his lawyer, Sergei Magnitsky, exposed fraud by Russian government officials and was later killed in a Moscow prison. Since then, he has sought justice through leadership of the Global Magnitsky Justice Campaign against human rights abusers.
The presenting sponsor (Global Champion) for this event is Hunt Consolidated, Inc.
