Palsar Ventures

The four general partners — Amir Ohad, Eyal Bar-Zvi, Eyal Yechezkell, and Nathan Yadlin — operate as a flat partnership. Amir Ohad serves as Executive Chairman with financial and M&A oversight. The firm's website does not list an investment committee or junior investment staff, suggesting all four partners share decision authority on pre-seed and seed-stage commitments.

Palsar routes nearly all deal flow through a closed network of co-investors, exited founders, accelerators, and alumni of IDF elite technological units — General Partner Nathan Yadlin is an active community leader within Unit 8200. The firm explicitly prefers warm introductions and does not run an open application process, which limits discovered deal flow to what its military-intelligence and operator networks surface.

The firm positions itself as a direct investor at the pre-seed and seed stages. It does not reference fund-of-funds commitments or LP investments on its website, and no secondary sources track Palsar as a limited partner in other venture funds.

Palsar writes first checks at pre-seed — before revenue — and at seed, when startups have early traction. The firm does not indicate participation in Series A or growth-stage rounds, structuring itself as the earliest institutional capital in a company.

Executive Chairman Amir Ohad is a colonel in an elite IDF reconnaissance unit and serves on the military's crisis-management and negotiation team. General Partner Nathan Yadlin is an alumni and community leader of Unit 8200, the signals intelligence corps that has produced a disproportionate share of Israel's technology founders. Two of the four partners have direct IDF connections that the firm leverages for sourcing.

Palsar's website portfolio page is a placeholder with no named companies. This is consistent with a deliberate stealth posture used by some Israeli micro-funds to avoid signaling competitive rounds to later-stage investors. The firm has not published a portfolio list through any known regulatory filing or press release.

Palsar describes its co-investor network as a primary deal-flow channel but does not specify whether it leads rounds, follows other GPs, or syndicates opportunistically. Given its small partnership and pre-seed focus, the firm likely co-invests alongside angels, accelerators, and other early-stage Israeli funds rather than large institutional VCs.
