About Us
The Sturgeon Scholarship supports aspiring leaders in Uzbekistan, focusing on women and financially disadvantaged students.
Established in 2020 by Sturgeon Capital, the scholarship reflects the firm’s commitment to education and entrepreneurial training in its active regions. In 2022, the Sturgeon Foundation was created to oversee the scholarship and expand its broader educational mission. The foundation and scholarship are managed by a Board of Trustees, including four independent trustees and two appointed by Sturgeon Capital.
