FOOTPRINT COALITION
FootPrint Coalition Science Engine
2022 Highlights
2022 was a fantastic, inaugural year for the FootPrint Coalition Science Engine, our innovative fast grant model to fund environmental research.
We launched 7 categories in cutting-edge environmental tech: Cellular Agriculture, Conservation Biotech, Environmental Justice, Indigenous Futures, Metascience, Mycological Innovations, and Negative Emissions Technologies; we funded 40 projects in those areas; and we won Breakthrough of the Year in Science and Innovation Management at Falling Walls!
