Thank you for your interest in the Open Field Entrepreneurs Fund at Carnegie Mellon University. (Read news release.) As you know, this program will provide early-stage business financing to alumni who have graduated from CMU within the past five years. Program details are still in the works. Over the summer and fall, the university will be developing the program's specifics — including how and when to apply. We're emailing to confirm we have your email address — and will be sure to contact you when details are announced. We anticipate more information becoming available — including an online application — before the end of 2011. If you know of others interested in an update, please encourage them to sign-up at www.cmu.edu/openfield. We look forward to sharing more with you as soon as the program is officially up and running.
