The SLI Research Fund supports issue-focused research that addresses some of the most pressing challenges facing our global society. Funded projects explore real-world questions with academic rigor and societal relevance - from AI to tax policy to new business models for healthcare.
Over 60 GSB faculty members are engaged in active research on these issues, with more than a third collaborating across the university. By fostering interdisciplinary collaboration across Stanford and beyond, the fund stimulates new ideas and approaches.
There are pressing and significant problems that confront business leaders at present — yet the answers remain elusive. The fund hopes to serve as an accelerant — to spur research activity that is targeted to address these specific problems and catalyze cross-disciplinary collaborations.
