yes, KDE is more conveniant for closed-source developers I understand,

Eazel are headed by Andy Hertzfeld, of Apple fame, they are redesigning
the desktop and GUI to make linux as friendly (or more than) a mac.

Helix is headed by Miguel de Icaza himself, and is focusing also on a
desktop and applications (groupware and more)
http://www.helixcode.com/about/
no other companies I am aware of that are doing concentrated work
focused on KDE in the same way AFAIK.
