History
Gerald D. Cohen, who died in 2020,  co-founded Information Builders (ibi) in 1975 with Peter Mittelman and Martin B. Slagowitz. Their initial product, FOCUS, was designed to enable people without formal computer programming skills to work with information systems.

Information Builders (ibi) is one of the largest privately held software firms and operates in more than 60 locations. In 2001, it established iWay Software, a wholly owned company that focuses on data integration and service-oriented architecture (SOA).

In October 2020, TIBCO Software agreed to purchase ibi for an undisclosed sum, pending final regulatory approval expected in TIBCO`s first fiscal quarter 2021.
