History

The Case Centre, is a not-for-profit organisation[14] and registered charity[15][16] founded in 1973. It was founded as Case Clearing House of Great Britain and Ireland, as a collaborative initiative of 22 higher educational institutions that wanted a platform to share case materials between management educators.[17][1] As the initiative grew in Europe, the organization rebranded itself as the European Case Clearing House in 1991, and again rebranded itself to ecch in 2005 to reflect its global presence, and finally rebranded to The Case Centre in 2013 to reflect its preeminent position in case method.[17]
