Co-Founder and CEO | Cornerstone Technologies
Fisher graduated from the University of Memphis in 1995 with a BS in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. Upon graduation, he founded a company specializing in Internet software development for enterprises using a new programming language released that year called Java.
In 1997, Fisher designed the web-based event management solution that became the core of EventU, now in use by thousands of non-profit organizations and Fortune 500 companies.
In 1998 after a trip to Romania, he sold his business (dba ServiceU) and moved to Romania to start Cornerstone Technologies, an outsourcing software development firm. While living in Bucharest, Fisher helped build churches, organize Bible studies in government and organize Romania’s annual National Prayer Dinner in Parliament. During the era of the dot-com bubble, Cornerstone Technologies was blessed to do highly specialized software development for a number of Fortune 500 companies.
In 2002, Fisher acquired the intellectual property for an application he developed for Regions Bank and co-founded Asentinel. Fisher is the principal architect and patent inventor for Asentinel’s telecom expense management (TEM) solutions. In 2003, Gartner began tracking the TEM industry which grew to over $2B by 2015. In 2008, Fisher received the first of his patents and successfully licensed his patents with several publicly traded competitors.
In 2013, he left Asentinel to again be the CEO of Cornerstone Technologies. In 2014, he finished his Master of Divinity at Mid-America Baptist Theological Seminary and co-founded Highland Harvesters, the largest apple orchard in Ethiopia located among thirty-two unreached, unengaged people groups. In 2016, he became the Executive in Residence at Emanuel University where he is pursuing graduate work on "business as missions". Currently, he is overseeing over a dozen kingdom businesses on five continents.
