WMA’s New Fund: The MailRoom Fund

So that’s the name, I found out: William Morris Agency, which announced its then un-named fund along with Accel Partners and Venrock, now has a name for it: The MailRoom Fund.

Richard Wolpert, the former president of Disney Online and the chief strategy officer at RealNetworks, is heading the fund. No investments done yet, but it is only three weeks old.
