History
MokaFive was founded in 2005 by four Stanford computer scientists. Monica Lam had an office in the same hallway as VMware founder, Mendel Rosenblum. The technology underwent ten years of research and development at Stanford. Official rollout of the first MokaFive Suite was in April, 2008.
MokaFive was involved early on in the Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) movement. MokaFive’s technology allows users to bring their own computers, laptops, tablets, or smartphones to the workplace and download the company desktop.
In 2007, Khosla Ventures and Highland Capital Partners invested $15 million in MokaFive. NGEN Partners contributed to a $21 million funding push in 2010.
Dale L. Fuller is currently the director of MokaFive. He officially took on the role on March 8, 2012. Fuller had served on the board of directors since 2008.

“It would be naive to think that peace and justice can be achieved easily. No set of rules or study of history will automatically resolve the problems.... However, with faith and perseverance,... complex problems in the past have been resolved in our search for justice and peace. They can be resolved in the future, provided, of course, that we can think of five new ways to measure the height of a tall building by using a barometer.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
“The history of medicine is the history of the unusual.”
