About
Chris Muscarella is a serial founder who built companies across deep tech, media, food, and physical products—from Mobile Commons (mobile tools for political campaigns including Obama's) to Field Company (premium cast-iron cookware) to restaurants and chef marketplaces—giving him rare hands-on experience with both software and physical goods. He focuses on investments that bring people together in real-world communities rather than just digital engagement, and has developed a specialized thesis on Africa's informal retail that emphasizes empowering existing neighborhood shops and distributors rather than replacing them.
