As published by ‘Green Queen’ FLORA Ventures has made headlines with the launch of an impressive $80 million fund, securing $50 million in commitments during its first closing. This achievement positions FLORA Ventures as the largest agri-food venture capital firm in Israel and as one of the most prominent new VC fund in 2023 across all tech investment sectors.
The firm primarily invests in early-stage start-ups in Israel and Europe, aiming to drive sustainability and resilience in the agri-food industry while facilitating global expansion for these ventures.
One of the things that sets FLORA Ventures apart is its unique partnership with Israeli Kibbutzim, pioneers in innovative agriculture, who not only serve as anchor investors but also as strategic partners in cultivating the next generation of agri-food unicorns.
Co-founder Gil Horsky comes from the global food industry and identified critical technology gaps in food security, digitization, sustainable agriculture, and food as medicine. FLORA Ventures is poised to shape the future of agri-food innovation.
