It is with deep sorrow that we have learned of the passing of Ms. Suna Kıraç, who pioneered the development of our country's industry in many sectors, held various leadership positions from the founding of the Koç Group until 2010, and led the establishment of Koç University, Koç School and the Educational Volunteers Foundation of Turkey.

As a true woman of the Republic who embodied the very meaning of the term "lady," Ms. Kıraç achieved significant success in business life without compromising her values, while also adding value to her country in education, culture and the arts, and was known as a pioneer of many social activities for society, recognized for her visionary, philanthropic and gentle character. It is clear that she will always be remembered with gratitude.

We wish God's mercy upon Ms. Suna Kıraç and extend our condolences and wishes of fortitude to her grieving family, friends and relatives, as well as to the employees and members of Koç Holding and to our sector.
