Boston Beer (SAM) Chairman Jim Koch says his wife, healthcare entrepreneur Cynthia Fisher, will inherit his controlling interest, The Wall Street Journal’s Laura Cooper reports. Both of them are entrepreneurs. Fisher in 1993 founded ViaCord, a cord blood stem-cell banking business that she helped take public and sold for $300M in 2007. More recently, she founded two advocacy groups that push for pricing transparency in healthcare, the author notes. Koch says he has no plans to retire soon. And he says he is unfazed by the declining sales volume of the beer industry-and of his own company, the publication adds.
