Dan Butler has lived in the US, France, and the UK, and has worked extensively in Germany, where he was the Managing Director of Xybernaut GmbH, the world’s leading wearable computer manufacturer. He also set up the company Irish Horse Marketing, to promote the Irish Sport Horse in Germany and Switzerland. Dan is the founder of the Irish Draught Society in Germany, is also a member of the North American Society, and a member of the West Cork Branch of the Society.

His passion for horses started early with his family, and continued with active participation in show jumping and dressage event organisation in France, UK, and the US. Dan Butler has also been an active stallion owner and breeder since the early 1990s.

The EFI believes his strong international background in commerce and equine industries gives him ideal qualifications and experience to further implement the modernisation of the EFI, and play an active role in the future of Horse Sport Ireland.

Speaking about his appointment today (Thursday), Dan Butler said: <These are exciting times for the Horse Sport industry in Ireland, and my goal is to proceed with the modernisation and strengthening of the effectiveness of the Federation, while working closely with all our affiliates to make this happen, and those bodies involved in the future of the whole industry.>
