Frequently asked questions
How does InNegev source proprietary deal flow?
InNegev's primary sourcing advantage comes from its headquarters in Rahat, Israel's largest Bedouin city, far from the concentrated venture networks of Tel Aviv. The firm's embedded presence in the Negev region gives it access to entrepreneurs and startups that are less visible to traditional Israeli venture firms. This geography-driven network generates a pipeline of early-stage opportunities that competitors struggle to replicate.
What investment stages does InNegev typically target?
InNegev focuses on early-stage opportunities: pre-seed and seed-stage startups. The firm enters at the very beginning of a company's lifecycle, providing first or near-first institutional capital to founders in Israel's technology sector. Later-stage or growth-equity investing does not appear to be part of the current mandate.
