Ben Kaufman Biography

Ben Kaufman is a serial entrepreneur and product visionary best known for building and scaling consumer brands that sit at the intersection of design, community, and commerce. Over the past two decades, he has founded and led companies that reimagined how products are discovered, developed, and brought to market—earning a reputation as a builder of experiences as much as businesses.

Kaufman first gained national attention as the founder of Mophie, the mobile accessory company that helped define the smartphone era with its sleek, design-forward battery cases. Under his leadership, Mophie grew rapidly and became a category leader, ultimately leading to its acquisition. The brand’s success established Kaufman as a sharp observer of consumer behavior and a disciplined product builder with a knack for anticipating where technology and lifestyle converge.

He later founded Quirky, a platform designed to democratize invention by turning community-sourced ideas into retail-ready products. Quirky’s ambitious model—blending crowdsourcing, rapid prototyping, and retail partnerships—attracted widespread media attention and investment, positioning Kaufman at the forefront of a new wave of participatory consumer innovation. Though the company faced significant challenges, it reinforced his willingness to experiment boldly and rethink traditional product development.

Continuing his focus on experience-driven retail, Kaufman went on to launch CAMP, a family-oriented retail concept that merges play, storytelling, and shopping into immersive environments. With rotating themed installations and interactive programming, CAMP has been praised for reimagining brick-and-mortar retail in the digital age—transforming stores into destinations that foster community and memory-making.

Across each venture, Kaufman has demonstrated a consistent philosophy: build products people love, design experiences that surprise and delight, and create brands rooted in authenticity and emotional connection. His career reflects both entrepreneurial risk-taking and a deep belief in the power of thoughtful design to shape how consumers live, shop, and engage with the world.
