LVL1 Group

LVL1 Group

LVL1 Group is a single-family office and venture capital vehicle run from Toronto and Israel, active since at least the mid-2010s. The firm was established by an operator with a technology founding and scaling background, though the specific wealth origin has not been publicly disclosed in detail. The strategy centers on direct early-stage investments, primarily seed and Series A, in B2B enterprise software companies. LVL1 concentrates on technical founders building in areas including AI/ML infrastructure, developer tools, cybersecurity, and FinTech. Portfolio exposure spans North America and Israel, with the dual-office structure supporting a cross-border sourcing model. The firm typically leads or co-leads rounds and maintains board-level involvement. Team size and total deployment remain undisclosed, though deal pace observed in public filings suggests a relatively lean operation making 4–8 new commitments per year. In May 2025, LVL1 participated in the $15 million Series A of StealthMole, a Singapore-based dark web threat intelligence platform (per TechCrunch, 2025). The firm operates without publicly known adjacent vehicles, club memberships, or philanthropic foundations. A structural differentiator is the Toronto–Israel axis itself: few family offices replicate this specific geography pair for venture, giving LVL1 a natural lens into both the Canadian tech ecosystem and the Israeli startup landscape. This dual footprint creates a sourcing funnel that blends North American scalability with Israeli deep-tech density, without the multi-stage platform overhead of a traditional venture firm.
