In 1988, Engelbart and his daughter Christina launched the Bootstrap Institute – later known as The Doug Engelbart Institute – to promote his vision, especially at Stanford University; this effort did result in some DARPA funding to modernize the user interface of Augment.

Engelbart won the 1997 ACM [[Turing Award]]. In December 2000, United States President [[Bill Clinton]] awarded Engelbart the National Medal of Technology, the U.S.'s highest technology award. In December 2008, he was honored by SRI at the 40th anniversary of the "Mother of All Demos". | |||
