HistoryEdit
Switch originated in April 1980 as Busch Creative Services Corporation, a corporate communications and creative arm of Anheuser-Busch. It was formed to produce corporate business meetings, retail sales promotions, events, event marketing, interactive media, and exhibits for Anheuser-Busch and other clients. In 2002, Anheuser-Busch sold the company to John Nickel, Mike O'Neill and Kevin Quigley, who renamed it Switch.[2] The buyers were nominated as finalists for the 2012 Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award for the Central Midwest market.[3][dead link][failed verification]
