Israeli high-tech funding rises to nearly $16 billion in 2025, report says
Israeli high-tech companies raised $15.6 billion in private funding in 2025, up from $12.2 billion in 2024, Startup Nation Central said in a report on Monday citing preliminary data.
The tech sector, regarded as one of the largest in the world, accounts for about 20% of GDP, 15% of jobs and more than half of Israeli exports. It has proved resilient, despite the war in Gaza, which began in 2023, when total funding was $10 billion. Global giants, such as Nvidia, in 2025 said they would increase their physical and talent presence in Israel. The number of funding deals, at 717, was the lowest in the last decade, but the deals were higher value. The median private deal, SNC said, reached a record $10 million – up 67% over 2024.
