Art Pharmacy

Social prescribing for treating mental health

Prescription service and proprietary matching technology, connecting patients to beneficial arts & culture activities.

Sourcing Story

Idea Fund Partners first met Chris via one of his pre-seed investors, Bob Cramer. The company was also referred by one of IFP’s accelerator partners, ATDC. We are very excited about companies bringing novel technology-backed solutions to legacy markets, and this is the case with Art Pharmacy introducing social prescribing in the US.

Conviction Points

Chris is a mission driven founder, and our interactions/diligence also revealed an energetic leader with a knack for seizing opportunity. Bringing these traits to address an overburdened mental health system with an n=1 solution yielded a highly-compelling investment opportunity.
