Acer was founded on August 1, 1976 as Multitech.
In 1987, Multitech was renamed to Acer. This logo was still used on some products after the introduction of the 2001 logo.
On March 8, 2001, a new logo was introduced, in which the Acer diamond was dropped. It was created by Landor Associates. The new logo came out following the spin-off of Acer's contract manufacturing business to focus on its brand business.
The 2001 logo was modified on April 11, 2011.[1]
