Kleiner Perkins Company Description
Let Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers (KPCB) beware -- or, at the very least, be on the lookout. The venture capital firm invests money, time, and talent in innovative companies that sometimes become the foundations for new industries. KPCB has invested in such notable outfits as Amazon.com, Google, and Intuit. The firm focuses its investments in four main areas: information technology, life sciences, pandemic and bio-defense, and green technology. (Al Gore is one of its partners.) Its portfolio includes stakes in around 100 companies. KPCB often forms networks among its investments so they can use one another to develop and expand.
