ZORA VENTURES

ZORA Ventures is building Israel’s leading impact tech fund, backing exceptional teams with B2B solutions that help the world’s largest companies operate more healthfully, sustainably and resource-efficiently. Each portfolio company targets significant and quantifiable progress toward one of the UN SDGs – climate change, environment, health access, food security – while also building a company that can deliver top-quartile venture returns. Our current vehicle, the ZORA Israel Impact Fund... , is a US$10M fund with initial investments in Wasteless, WeedOUT, Solutum and Amai Proteins. The ZORA Israel Impact Fund leverages the nexus of two phenomena in order to generate top-tier returns for LPs while also delivering strong impact. First, we capture value in Israel’s preferential Seed-stage valuations, frequently ~50% vis-à-vis those of their NY/SF peers, making well-curated early-stage investments a powerful driver of fund performance. Second, we benefit from Israel’s exceptional B2B impact deal flow, with over 40% of the country’s 6,500+ startups operating in high-impact sectors, and the presence of 300+ multinationals who provide R&D support, feedback on product-market fit, and paths toward market, even from the earliest stages. We scout Israel's labs, universities, incubators and accelerators, partnering with their brightest teams, to deliver impact at a global scale.More
