About

TechCrunch and the Raise Track Update name Kleiner Perkins as a participant in Flapping Airplanes' $1 billion Series A, announced on 2026-10-21. The company site lists Kleiner Perkins among additional supporters. None of those sources calls Kleiner Perkins the lead.

The firm's home page, read on 2026-10-27, presents portfolio stories. One story mentions offices on Sand Hill Road and does not name the city. The page does not label a headquarters, so this page does not store a city.

This page is not indexed by search engines yet. It is promoted once it meets the quality gate for investor pages: a description from the firm's own website, a headquarters city and at least two two-sourced rounds on this site.
