Lukas H. Lundin
1958-2022
Lukas died at the age of 64 from glioblastoma, a form of brain cancer.
A man who made a difference in this world. Let’s continue the journey.
Lukas’ life journey was a remarkable one. Entrepreneurial, and always adventurous, he was passionate about the resource industry and its power to transform lives. From the high Andes of Argentina to the jungles of Ecuador, he pursued opportunities that led to some of the largest and most successful resource developments in the world.
His last major initiative was the establishment of the Lundin Family Brain Tumour Research Centre.
Let’s build upon his legacy.

Funding the very best in brain cancer research
There is a significant lack of funding and awareness about brain cancer. Lukas’ sons, Adam, Jack, William and Harry Lundin, want to honour their father by helping to fund cutting edge research at CHUV, one of the top cancer research hospitals in the world, ultimately allowing for more widely available and effective treatment options. The Lundin family is committed to funding brain cancer research at CHUV over the long term. The work at CHUV is collaborative and any wins in research are shared with hospitals worldwide, allowing exponential growth in those benefits to so many more.
Please join us on this journey to push the boundaries of cancer research innovation.
What Is Glioblastoma?
- A rare but very aggressive
brain tumour
- No known risk factors
- Resistant to treatment
