<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Startup fund aims to assist in the establishment and funding of early-stage deep-tech companies at various development stages, from ideation to growth, in sync with the market. The fund will focus on early-stage development in areas with extensive R&D, presenting a high level of risk with challenges related to private capital availability. The new fund will involve the Innovation Authority in all investment rounds, from pre-seed through seed to Series A, with joint investment alongside venture capital firms or private investors, aiming to reduce risk for investors and encourage investment realization. Companies can apply for funding to the Startup Fund with or without a signed investment agreement. Companies approved without an investment agreement will have a limited time frame after the Innovation Authority’s funding approval to raise the additional required funding in the private market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
