Mookerji Innovation Fund Program

The Mookerji Innovation Fund at Kennesaw State University provides over $120,000 annually in startup capital to support students and recent alumni with innovative, tech-focused business ideas.

This initiative is made possible by tech entrepreneurs Sid and Sophie Mookerji, who generously contribute $120,000 each year to establish and sustain the fund. Managed by the Robin and Doug Shore Entrepreneurship and Innovation Center, the fund aims to:

  • Support emerging business ventures with up to $30,000 in funding per project.
  • Offer consulting and business development resources through the Entrepreneurship Center.
  • Connect students and alumni with experienced industry mentors.
