In Memory of our founder and friend Valerie Gürtler-Doyle

Valerie Doyle

It is with great sadness that the Irish Business Network Switzerland (IBN) committee has learned of the passing of the IBN Founder and former President, Valerie Guertler-Doyle.

Valerie founded the Irish Business Network in 2008, to support innovative Irish companies gain visibility and business in Switzerland, as well as support Irish professionals living in Switzerland across all sectors of industry. Over the next ten years, Valerie led the Network through a period of sustained growth and success.

Valerie touched everyone she met with her infectious enthusiasm, boundless positive energy, sparkling wit and huge heart. She was a constant bright and supportive presence and will be greatly missed by her huge circle of friends in the Network.

Our loss can never equal that of her husband Leif and daughter Susanne, to whom we convey our deepest sympathy.

Like many of you, we all have numerous fond memories of our interactions with Valerie. The committee would like to capture and share some of these with her family and plans to compile a booklet of tributes to her. We invite members from across the Network to join in this gesture and contribute your thoughts, memories ,quotes, pictures or short stories. You can do so by emailing pr@theram.ch
