Built together

We have been building the Israeli tech ecosystem together for 12+ years. Our partnership runs through 5 joint ventures, multi-role expertise on both sides of the cap table, and the kind of perfect sync that only forms through years of shared challenges and successes. Together we have made 50+ investments in Israeli startups with 10+ exits, and helped channel $500M+ of VC funding into the country. Our first fund ranks in the top quartile by IRR and the top decile by DPI among funds of its vintage. Fund II was launched with the backing of LPs from our first fund, together with new investors who believe in our ecosystem and our thesis. Are you with us?
