Hanaco Ventures is a prominent Israeli venture capital firm that manages over $2 billion in assets, investing in early and growth-stage technology companies. The firm focuses on sectors such as cybersecurity, fintech, artificial intelligence, digital health, and hardware, with a notable emphasis on impact investments like SpotItEarly and Redefine Meat.
Established in 2017 by Alon Lifshitz, Lior Prosor, and Pasha Romanovski, Hanaco Ventures has invested in over 60 companies across various stages. The firm's investment strategy includes leading and co-leading early-stage opportunities from Seed to Series A, with initial investments ranging from $2-6 million, and growth-stage investments from Series C through pre-IPO, with initial check sizes ranging from $15-20 million.
