Kleiner Perkins

Activity from announced rounds

Activity in this selectionSeed

Kleiner Perkins invests in technology companies from inception through IPO and beyond, combining early company formation with capital for later expansion.

The firm’s company-building work includes executive recruiting, business development and management systems. Its early work with Google included recruiting senior engineering and product leaders and introducing OKRs, giving a concrete example of how its role can extend beyond financing.

Its current AI thesis covers both foundational models and applications across industries. Kleiner’s investment in Anthropic reflects the former; its backing of enterprise products such as Rippling shows its interest in systems that become central to a customer’s operations.
