KPCB tried to acquire Social + Capital Partnership - Fortune

According to a Fortune article, Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers recently tried to buy fellow venture firm Social + Capital Partnership. No financial terms were disclosed. However, as the report says, "talks ended within the past few weeks, and are now considered to be dead." If the deal had gone through, contends Fortune, Social + Capital Partnership's Chamath Palihapitiya, Ted Maidenberg and Mamoon Hamid would have become partners at KPCB's venture practice.
