Long before they founded Pyramid Systems, Jeff Hwang and Sherry Hwang met as students on the Georgia State University campus. Two young people from Taiwan, far from home, building a future one class at a time.
Today, they're making sure the next generation gets that same chance.
Both earned their degrees in Computer Information Systems at Georgia State's J. Mack Robinson College of Business. That education became the foundation for their careers, their marriage, and the company they would go on to build together. They never forgot where it started.
In 2010, Jeff and Sherry established the Jeff and Sherry Hwang Scholarship, an endowed fund at the Robinson College, to help students pursuing the same path they once walked. In the years since, they've returned to that commitment again and again, with additional gifts in 2011 and 2017 bringing their giving to $250,000.
Now they're opening a new chapter. Through the Hwang AI Scholar Initiative, a $50,000 gift, they're supporting students in Georgia State's new Master of Science in Artificial Intelligence and Business Transformation, launching this fall, and helping prepare the next generation to lead in an AI-driven economy.
All told, their commitment to Georgia State now stands at $300,000. Fifteen years of giving back to the place that gave them their start. Not a single gesture, but a belief lived out over time: that opportunity is meant to be passed on.
Congratulations, Jeff and Sherry. Everyone at Pyramid Systems is proud to call you our founders.
