Gebhardt Sandbox Fund
The Gebhardt Sandbox Fund is focused on supporting our founders right from the start by providing them with access to early idea stage funding and mentorship. CMU current undergraduate and professional master student founders with startups of all stages and industries are welcome to apply to either the fall or spring funding cycle.
A special thank you to Celeste and Olivia Gebhardt for their generous gift in establishing and supporting this fund, which honors the memory of Bruce Gebhardt, CMU Tepper Alum, Board Member, and Super Angel who supported many of our CMU founders and startups.
If you have any questions please email Aleksandar Petkov (apetkov@andrew.cmu.edu).
