USC Trustee Mark Stevens is known for investing early in the people, ideas and businesses that go on to transform the world. As a partner at Sequoia Capital, he made early-stage investments in Google, Yahoo, YouTube and NVIDIA that landed him on Forbes’ Midas List.

Now, Stevens (BS/BA ’81, MS ’84) and his wife, Mary, are making a landmark $200 million investment in USC, the university they believe will be the national leader in AI-powered research and creativity.

In recognition of this gift, the USC School of Advanced Computing — the university’s nexus for interdisciplinary research, teaching and innovation in AI — has been renamed the USC Mark and Mary Stevens School of Computing and Artificial Intelligence.
