About Amit Mukherjee
Amit Mukherjee is a former NEA partner who founded Chainforest as a venture DAO that evolved from an informal Telegram chat of web3 builders, operating with a community-first, capital-second approach rather than a traditional GP/LP fund model. He positions himself as a VC-turned web3 founder who combines community building with capital deployment, focusing on pre-seed web3 companies while using DAO infrastructure and member participation as a core investing advantage.
