Parkway Venture Capital enters this map because Figure AI identified it as the lead investor in its September 2025 Series C. That documented capital relationship connects this firm to the mapped humanoid-robotics company, while the firm's official portfolio and team pages supply its separate identity context. The research map records an attributed financing relationship, not a complete portfolio or a live ownership register. A named investor reveals which capital networks have supported a mapped company, but that relationship alone does not establish ownership percentage, investment amount, board rights, or influence over product decisions. Parkway is most useful here as a signal of which growth-stage capital networks are backing humanoid robotics — a flagship Physical AI category — through a lead position in a mapped company. Coverage grows only through verified, sourced direct relationships to existing mapped companies. Founded in 2019 by Jesse Coors-Blankenship and Gregg Hill in New York, Parkway is a growth-stage franchise, and its lead position in Figure AI places it among the capital networks backing the flagship humanoid-robotics category.
