History

Robert Jacobi co-founded Arc Technology Group as a firm specializing in Java[2] in 2000 and continues to serve as president. According to Chicago Sun-Times, Jacobi was inspired by the movie WarGames and early bulletin board systems to program and venture into content management.

Arc Technology Group has been a member and graduate of the Evanston Technology Innovation Center[3] since 2001. Arc Technology Group has worked with TIC firms on many projects including streaming media.[4]

Joomla

Arc Technology Group's focus on open source content management began in 2004 with Mambo and quickly turned to Joomla in 2005. In 2011, Arc released a number of extensions for Joomla licensed under the GPL.
