Often Wrong, Never Doubt

I’m Oussama Ammar. For a decade, I co-founded TheFamily. Our portfolio raised 1.5bn$ in follow-up funding. I did over a thousand deals. Helped startups across the globe go from an idea to something real. It was beautiful. And chaotic. And big. It end up in blood. Co-Founders break up 💔

But that chapter is closed.

This time, I’m not trying to be everywhere. I’m not holding small pieces of companies I barely touch. I’m not chasing volume, trends, or noise. I’m going deep, not wide. Maximum 7 projects. That’s it. Startups, of course. But also things that don’t fit in any deck. Things I love. People I trust. Work that matters.

I want to build again — not from the outside, but from within. Fully involved. Fully present. No distractions.

If you want to follow this journey, understand what I’m thinking, or just see how things really get built — I write a newsletter. It’s where I share everything. The good, the hard, and the in-between.
