History

In 2004 the Kuali Project was initiated by the University of Hawaii, Indiana University, rSmart, and The National Association of College and University of Business Officers (NACUBO). The project received its initial funding of $2.5 million from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.

In 2005, Kuali became a non-profit organization, officially known as the Kuali Foundation.

In August 2014 the Kuali Foundation announced the launch of its for-profit commercial entity. Kuali re-licensed and assumed responsibility for the development of the Kuali community software, moving it to the cloud. The Kuali foundation disbanded in 2023, noting the extensive adoption of Kuali software by educational institutions.[2][3]
