About
Rachel Kropa co-designed and leads FootPrint Coalition's Science Engine, a nonprofit tech incubator that fast-tracks science-fiction-sounding environmental ideas like cotton without plants and 3D-printed steak by pairing rapid micro-grants with public crowdfunding. She brings nearly two decades at the intersection of Hollywood, philanthropy, and sustainability into climate tech investing, and uses entertainment-grade storytelling as a core part of her investing toolkit, co-hosting FootPrint Coalition's Downstream Channel with Robert Downey Jr. to translate complex climate technologies into accessible content.
