About
Israel Secondary Fund (ISF) is a pioneering secondary investment firm established in 2008, focusing on providing liquidity solutions within Israel's high-tech ecosystem. Headquartered in Herzliya, ISF has built a robust presence in the secondary market by facilitating over 80 transactions, offering stakeholders opportunities to sell their interests in tech companies and venture funds. The firm manages over $500 million, catering to needs ranging from direct secondary purchases of shares from founders and employees to acquiring LP positions in VC and private equity funds. ISF’s strategy centers on its "Triple Win Approach," ensuring mutual benefits for sellers, ISF, and the companies involved. They conduct transactions typically starting from $1 million, becoming long-term partners to their portfolio companies, which include notable names like MyHeritage, Aidoc, and Verbit. This involvement often extends to participating in future funding rounds and structured deals that provide liquidity while preserving the growth potential of the assets. The firm is led by experienced partners, including co-founders Dror Glass and Shmuel Shilo, who leverage decades of expertise in investment and finance. ISF recently raised $312 million for its third fund, highlighting its critical role in enabling liquidity in a market where startups might face long pathways to exits, especially amid IPO delays. By offering these tailored liquidity solutions, ISF continues to support the sustained growth of Israel’s tech sector.
