IVC & Leumi Tech – Israeli Tech Review, Q3 2024

The report by the IVC & Leumi Tech – Israeli Tech Review, Q3 2024 discusses the challenge of determining whether to include funds raised by Israeli tech companies with foreign headquarters in total aggregate dollar outcomes. The practical question arises of whether most of the capital from investment deals will reach Israel if a company's headquarters is located overseas. The article suggests that if a company has formal operations in both a foreign country and Israel, some of the capital may reach Israeli resources. The example of Safe Superintelligence, which raised $1 billion in a first round with a subsidiary in Israel, is used to demonstrate how a significant amount of capital could potentially impact the Israeli market. The article highlights the importance of understanding company resources and locations to estimate the impact on the local market. Ultimately, the intro emphasizes the need for efficient information distribution to accurately assess the distribution of capital in Israeli tech investments.
