- Clay Hales: Founder, President and CEO
InfoSystems, Inc. began in 1994 as a small, Chattanooga-based company, selling office products like electric typewriters, copiers, and networking services. As newer technology replaced the old, Founder and President Clay Hales had an idea for the company to be as dynamic and changing as the market. A giant transformative step came in 2000;
InfoSystems an IBM Business Partner and an IT business, selling the most sophisticated IBM computer systems and software on the planet.
InfoSystems plunged, head first, into the unpredictable, fast-paced world of the growing and changing technology industry. The transition wasn’t easy, but the timing was impeccable. The company flourished through the economic slowdown of 2002, following the devastation of 9/11. Later, they weathered the recession of 2009 and beyond. From 2001 to 2010, IBM lost over one-third of their less successful business partners, while InfoSystems somehow found room to grow. Against all odds, InfoSystems doubled their revenue from 2009 to 2013 and expanded their market to include Knoxville, Nashville, as well as surrounding states.
