  Dan's approach to estate planning is quite unique. Rather than drafting one cookie-cutter trust to fit all family assets, Dan creates a portfolio of trusts each fine-tuned to hold specific assets and thus optimizing the overall protection of the clients' portfolio. He has a solid understanding of the law and the various tools used in estate planning, from special needs trusts, to ILITS, to planning for foreign investors. I recommend Dan as an excellent Trusts and Estate lawyer."

  I know Daniel from my years at Novartis Latin America and Canada Regional office. Both him and I were members of the management team overseeing Novartis operations in the region. During those years I saw how Dan played a key role in managing corporate reputation and patient relations. For example, during Dan's tenure at Novartis, the company was ranked #1 by PatientView, an organization that captures feedback from patient organizations throughout the Latin american region. Similarly, I saw how Dan used his in-depth knowledge of the legal framework of the various countries where Novartis operates to successfully leverage the company's mission and advocate for high ethical standards in the pharmaceutical industry. Dan is an key asset for any company.”

  Dan is a pragmatic attorney able to develop creative and holistic legal strategies that maximize corporate goodwill, protect assets, and make sound business sense. He has an in-depth knowledge of local laws and regulations across Latin America and the US, and how they interplay with policy trends and international accords. He challenges existing frameworks and works towards attuning them to evolving circumstances, such as the impact of social media or the rise of new stakeholders and advocacy groups. He is very active in legal circles, frequently works with my team of lawyers in crafting legal arguments, and interacts with outside counsel everywhere we operate. I consider Dan a valuable member of the Regional leadership team.

  Daniel is a gentle, kind but strong and clear leader. I was part of his Latinamerican team while he was Head of Public Affairs and Communications within Novartis. It was a great experience to have the opportunity to learn from him, but most of all, to feel he do care about what his collaborators could bring into the table from their own experiences. He reads with a great vision the differences amongst team players and use the best of each to accomplish the team objectives, giving confidence and sense of belonging no matter where you come from. He built a great team.I also witnessed him effectively managing a complex media crisis in Mexico with remarkable steady hands and ability to methodically deal with multiple local and international stakeholders to restore corporate reputation.A great boss to work for, a great leader, a confident human being.

  I have worked with Dan at Novartis for several years now in the area of patient relations and advocacy. Through his employer, Dan sponsored a series of projects in which my consulting firm was the leading researcher and implementer. Dan proved to be a strategic ally and valuable contributor. His advice was always spot on, focused on outcomes and adding value to the overall picture; in this case, how it helped patient groups become a vibrant community of advocates for better healthcare. I have also seen him addressing large audiences with ease, and with a remarkable ability to engage and inspire. He is not only an excellent professional but a person who cares about patients and carers in Latin America.

  Daniel Coriat is probably one of the most complete Comms & PA leaders that I know. He is a people-oriented individual with the capacity to deep-dive on the businees, build a holistic approach including different perspectives and connect them with the function. It also includes the ability to analyze political, economical, social and business environments from different regions and transform them into projects that can be measured with clear KPI´s. He puts the talent and the Team at the center of everything he does and his coaching, feedback, mentoring and line management allows people to evolve and grow within his Team or outside it. I strongly recommend Daniel and also highlight his ethic, values and very transparent ways of working.

  I met Daniel seven years ago, as I was retiring from Novartis. I am glad to see how much he has grown and evolved since then. He is a valued contributor of FIFARMA, the Latin American trade association representing the innovative pharmaceutical sector. He was one of the core actors in charge of reinstating FIFARMA, and has represented Novartis since then. Daniel is currently the co-chair of one of the working groups in charge of shaping the environment for the benefit of patient safety. He is also an active member of the advisory board. Daniel is particularly effective at forming alliances among different actors by offering persuasive arguments and highlighting the benefits of cooperation. He has a solid understanding of matters related to the pharmaceutical industry, as well as matters related to Latin America such as political and legislative interplay with economic development. He is a genuine leader whom I much enjoy working with.

  Dan is a trusted partner among the community of patient organizations across Latin America. IAPO represents over 365 million patients across the world, with a strong footprint in Latin America, so I interact with many patient groups. Dan Coriat of Novartis is a name that frequently comes up in our conversations when discussing best practices of collaboration between industry and patient advocacy groups. He has been the creator of the Summit of Latin American Patient Groups, a yearly event where over 100 patient groups from more than 14 Latin American countries gather to exchange experiences and build expertise in advocacy. This “Cumbre” is quickly becoming one of the most important events for the community of patient groups, and we are all thankful for Dan's efforts in being one of its main promoters.

  I met Dan during his recruitment at Novartis in 2008. Since then he has reported to me on matters concerning public affairs for Canada and the Latin American region. Dan has proven to be an asset to the organization with high performing values and behaviors. He is an inspiring leader - I can see that when our team of public affairs professionals based in all ten locations throughout the region interact with him and collaborate in a coordinated fashion. He has displayed a robust understanding of political and economic undercurrents in every country in the Region. His unique skill set - a communicator, lawyer, MBA, and engineer - has enabled him to master with ease complex issues affecting the business, with excellent strategic thinking. I can think of so many instances when Dan quickly identified trends that later proved of great importance, and how he framed strategies to mitigate obstacles or leverage opportunities. His advocacy style is such that he effectively persuades internal and external stakeholders turning them into strong allies for achieving a set goal. He also leverages a keen understanding of cultural nuances to build trust with local stakeholders.

As if this were not enough, in addition to the high work ethic he is a pleasure to work with and a powerful intellect to engage in thought-provoking conversations well beyond the realm of work.
