Where it all began
Our History
JB Systems was started in 2001 by Gerald Bauer, at the time a student at Memorial High School in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. Inspired by a trip to NexTech's National Summit of Young Technology Leaders and meeting technology experts such as Nicholas M Donofrio - V.P. of IBM Corp, Steve Case - CEO of America Online, and Tim Berners-Lee - founder of HTML and the World Wide Web (CERN Laboratories), Gerald (JB) returned with the mission of creating the best website design firm in the area.

Beginning with family friends and small startups, JB soon became a popular choice for website design. His dedication to friendly customer support, continued technology and web-based education, and superior design skills paid off.

Today, JB Systems is located at 404 S. Barstow St in Eau Claire, WI. With seven employees and a client base of over 100 companies, JB Systems is rapidly becoming the area's number one choice for website development, website hosting, search engine optimization, technology consulting, and graphic design.
