About us
Fusion VC is Israel’s most active pre-seed investment platform and accelerator.
Since 2017, Fusion has invested in more than 140 startups, which together have reached a combined valuation of over $3 billion and raised more than $650 million from leading global investors.
Each year, Fusion makes dozens of $150K investments to help founders turn their vision into reality — often backing first-time entrepreneurs and companies operating in sectors that are still underrepresented in the Israeli venture ecosystem.
