Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers
Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers are actively investing in greentech innovation and entrepreneurs, and has been since 1999. The number one trend on the planet is urbanization, and the four billion people moving to megacities in the next 50 years will need clean water, clean power and clean transportation. At the same time, climate change is hitting crisis proportions; atmospheric CO2 levels are at an all-time high, with accelerating growth; and our addiction to increasingly expensive oil is unabating. Increased political and social awareness, combined with developments in materials technology, means now is the time to make a big difference. We believe that policy and innovation will solve these problems, with leadership from entrepreneurs who want to build profitable ventures and do good at the same time.
