9 Active Venture Capital Firms in Israel (in 2024)

Matt Preuss
Marketing Manager

At Visible, we oftentimes compare a venture fundraise to a traditional B2B sales and marketing funnel.

  • At the top of the funnel, you are finding potential investors via cold outreach and warm introductions.
  • In the middle of the funnel, you are nurturing potential investors with meetings, pitch decks, updates, and other communications.
  • At the bottom of the funnel, you are working through due diligence and hopefully closing new investors.

A strong sales and marketing funnel starts by identifying the right leads for your business. The same idea is true for founders looking to find investors for their business — find the right investors for your business.
