About this Event
Takwin Ventures, the first and only VC firm dedicated to championing Arab tech entrepreneurs in Israel, invites you to a special event celebrating and exploring the opportunity that exists when like-minded allies and investors come together to achieve a common goal. We believe that by fostering an established Arab presence in Israel’s high-tech industry, we can create a strong foundation for talented, high-potential Arab-Israelis to contribute to “Start-up Nation,” and bolster Israel both socially and economically.
Through our Takwin 1 and Takwin 2 funds, Jews and Arabs are working together to empower, accelerate, and inspire ambitious Arab-Israeli entrepreneurs on their path to building successful global companies with groundbreaking technology. Our first fund launched in 2015 and saw tremendous growth in total portfolio value from $6.2 million at the initial investment in 2015, to $61.3 million in 2019, and then tripled its value by 2021. We expect the recently launched Takwin 2 to be an even greater success, and we are excited to have you join us.
At this event, you’ll have the opportunity to:
Meet the team committed to identifying and empowering the next generation of Arab-Israeli entrepreneurs to “Dream, Dare, Compete, and Deliver;"
Connect with like-minded peers who care about the opportunity and prosperity of Israel;
Hear about how early-stage investments in fields like autonomous vehicles, agriculture, seismology, Media, and nanotechnology have helped establish more transformative, high-growth businesses like SOOS, OvoTech, Feelit,, Imagry, Flare and MirageDynamics.
Learn how you can join and contribute to the team of investors making a positive impact on an untapped, and greatly needed source of talent in Israel, while also increasing your own investment potential.
