Sir Allen McClay, CBE was a Northern Irish multi-millionaire businessman and philanthropist who founded Galen (later Warner Chilcott), a pharmaceutical company which was Northern Ireland's first £1 billion business. After resigning from Galen in 2001, he went on to form a second successful pharmaceutical company, the Almac Group. McClay established the McClay Trust in 1997, a charitable organisation which 'support[s] research and development activities within Queen's University'. The Trust has donated £20 million to the university, which has included sponsorship of PhD studentships at the university's Cancer Research Centre. The trust also funded the £3.5 million McClay Research Centre at the School of Pharmacy which opened in 2002, and contributed money to the building of the new University Library at Queen's, which opened in 2009 and is now named after McClay.
