Israel has the well deserved name of startup nation. The question
however is can it also become a scaleup powerhouse. The purpose of
this report is exactly that subject: taking the pulse of the Israeli scaleup
ecosystem.
With this report we want to provide a comprehensive review of
investment in scaleups and high-growth technology companies in Israel.
Our aim is to provide data-driven guidance, insights and inspiration to
stakeholders in the Israeli scaleup ecosystem.
We hope you find the 2016 edition of the report informative.
Sincerely,
Omar Mohout

Contrary to Silicon Valley, where 2 out
of 3 startups are consumer oriented,
Israeli scaleups are predominantly
B2B. Even more so than European
scaleups, another B2B oriented
ecosystem.
All industries are B2B oriented with
the exception of eCommerce, EdTech,
Gaming and Virtual Reality.

Only 1% of Israeli scaleups are spin-
offs or spin-outs from universities.
That’ surprising low, compared to
8% in Europe.
However, there is a one institute
that is generating a high number
spin-offs: the army. A number of
scaleups have their roots in the
Israel Defense Forces such as
Voyager Lab, Celeno, Logz.io,
Singular, Siemplify and Dronomy.
Specifically Unit 8200 has a history
with founders of cyber security
companies, including Check Point
and Palo Alto Networks.
MOST ACTIVE SPIN OFF INSTITUTES 2016
1. Tel Aviv University
2. Ben-Gurion University
2016 ISRAEL SCALE UP REPORT

19
14% of the Israeli scaleups
graduated from an acceleration
program.
Program alumni don’t necessary
raise more money, but they are
more than one year younger on
average when they raise capital. It
might well be that they can start to
scale earlier or have better access to
investors thanks to the programs.
Team8, RDSeed, RDC and JVP Cyber
Labs, accelerators specialized in
cybersecurity, will further cement
the strong position of the country in
the industry.
MOST ACTIVE ACCELERATORS 2016
1. Microsoft Accelerator (multiple countries)
2. 500 Startups (US)
3. UpWest Labs (US)
4. Samsung NEXT (Israel)
5. Nielsen Innovate (Israel)
6. Flex Lab IX (US)
7. Team8 (Israel)

and an impressive 60% of all capital
raised.
The top deals are Gett (Volkswagen),
Voyager Labs (Oracle) and
Houseparty (Comcast).
The largest number of corporates
investing together in a single deal is
datacentre software company
Stratoscale with Qualcomm, Intel,
Cisco and SanDisk as investors.

This breakdown only covers
investors that are based in Israel.
OurCrowd proved that
crowdfunding can attracted growth
capital for scaleups. The platform
helped to raise €93M over 8 deals
including Greek AgriTech scaleup
Centaur Analytics.
The platform itself attracted € 73M
in growth capital in 2016 to scaleup
the business.

Surprisingly, no Israeli scaleup went
the IPO route in 2016 (22 tech
companies went IPO in Europe).
Infinity AR even left the public
market and raised growth capital
from Alibaba.
Also media-for-equity plays no role
in Israel. Perhaps the strong B2B
orientation of the ecosystem is the
reason for the lack of activities in
that domain.

METHODOLOGY
2016 ISRAEL SCALE UP REPORT METHODOLOGY

27
Companies includes web, app, mobile, digital products
and services, software, marketplace, connected
hardware, data-driven and HardTech companies.
Companies that have their HQ or launched in Israel are
considered. LifeScience and BioTech (except software
solutions targeting this industry), non digital CleanTech
(such as solar panel producers etc), eCommerce (such as
Hallofresh, Zalando etc), research institutes and
consultancy companies are excluded.
We encourage you to review the methodology to better
understand the numbers presented in this report.
2016 ISRAEL SCALE UP REPORT METHODOLOGY
Scaleups, not startups, are generating added value,
create jobs, expand international and create economic
value for stakeholders and society. This group is
attracting the lion share of (venture) capital, in some
countries of up to 90% of all capital. In other words, we
use the Pareto distribution rule to create an accurate
view on the venturing landscape. Only deals of at least
$1M / € 750K are considered.
We use a data-driven approach to track financing activity
for Israeli tech companies.

28
Deals with a non-disclosed value or lacking value indication are not counted. If an amount is
described as a seven-figure number, the lowest possible value has been counted. Funding is
registered based on announcement date. All currencies (USD, GBP, CHF, SEK etc) are converted to
Euro using aonda.com. The number of employees is captured on the moment of fund raising and
based on the press release, LinkedIn, Xing, Viadeo or the company’s website.
The founding year and location is based on information in press releases, company website,
Crunchbase, LinkedIn or Xing. If deal information is being detected or corrected after closing the
month, quarter or year, it will be included in future reports. Funding of both private and public
companies are considered. Debt financing, IPOs, media for equity, crowdfunding, Initial Coin
Offering, private placements, post IPO equity, private equity, grants and convertible loans are
included.
