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.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“What you don’t understand is that it is possible to be an atheist, it is possible not to know if God exists or why He should, and yet to believe that man does not live in a state of nature but in history, and that history as we know it now began with Christ, it was founded by Him on the Gospels.”
—Boris Pasternak (1890–1960)
“It is true that this man was nothing but an elemental force in motion, directed and rendered more effective by extreme cunning and by a relentless tactical clairvoyance .... Hitler was history in its purest form.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
“There is nothing truer than myth: history, in its attempt to “realize” myth, distorts it, stops halfway; when history claims to have “succeeded” this is nothing but humbug and mystification. Everything we dream is “realizable.” Reality does not have to be: it is simply what it is.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
