We invest in early-stage cybersecurity, defense tech, AI, and enterprise software — built by Israel's most elite founders and connected to U.S. capital and global markets.
A cross-border partnership combining IDF intelligence and cyber pedigree with U.S. venture track records built over two decades of early-stage investing.
A dual-market strategy built on deep relationships with Israel's military and intelligence communities, paired with the U.S. networks needed to scale companies globally.
Israel's IDF selects the best technical minds for elite cyber and intelligence units — Unit 8200, Talpiot, and beyond. Our team has direct, personal relationships within this network, giving us access to deals before they reach the broader market.
Our Israel team sources and diligences deals on the ground. Our U.S. team opens Fortune 500, government, NATO, and defense contractor doors — creating distribution advantages and exit pathways that single-geography funds cannot offer.
We invest at the inception stage — Pre-Seed through Series A — before larger funds have visibility. This means more meaningful ownership, closer founder relationships, and the opportunity to help shape product and go-to-market strategy from the beginning.
We take board seats and work alongside our founders. We make introductions to Israel's prime minister's office, defense establishment, and enterprise buyers. We open U.S. government, NATO, and Fortune 500 doors when companies are ready to scale.
