Rippl, a Seattle, WA-based mental health company, raised $32M in Seed funding.
The round was led by ARCH Venture Partners and General Catalyst with participation from GV, F-Prime Capital, and Mass General Brigham Ventures.
The company intends to use the funds to hire and train a team of clinicians, build technology, and open a Washington state-based clinical support center to launch pilot networks in two regions, beginning in Seattle.
Led by CEO Kris Engskov, Rippl is a mental health company focused on caring for seniors with dementia and other neurocognitive conditions, which provides 24/7 support and personalized care when and where they need it – on the phone, online or in their living rooms. With a new platform, a compensation, benefits and equity package, and a mission-driven culture, Rippl will empower and enable its clinicians to deliver personalized mental health care to seniors and their families. The company is also working with clinical teaching institutions to design and build a Rippl Academy focused on upskilling its existing team and actively bringing more clinicians into the space.
Rippl is led by a diverse group of consumer product and health care changemakers, including CEO and Co-Founder Kris Engskov, former President of Starbucks Coffee U.S., and President of Aegis Living; Co-Founder and Vice President of Strategy and Innovation Inca Dieterich, PhD; Chief Medical Officer Aaron Greenstein, MD; Chief People Officer Jesse Schlueter; Vice President of Clinical Operations Karrie Austin, RN; and Vice President of Finance Jim Terry.
