History

The Fisher Center was formed in late 1992 as an outgrowth of the Information Technology Management program of UC-Berkeley's Walter A. Haas School of Business. In the mid 1990s the center received a generous gift from Don Fisher (the co-founder of The Gap) and his name was added to ours. Organizationally, the center is one of the several diverse centers that comprise the Institute for Business Innovation (IBI) within the Haas School of Business at UC-Berkeley.
