Israeli startups raised over $1 billion in March 2025, according to reports and press releases seen by “Globes.” The figure may be more as some companies prefer to remain in stealth and sometimes do not publicize the investments they have received.

Overall in 2024, Israeli privately-held tech companies raised $9.58 billion, according to IVC-LeumiTech, up 38% from 2023 when $6.9 billion was raised, after $15 billion was raised in 2022, and a record $25.6 billion was raised in 2021.

In March 2025, the biggest financing rounds were completed by cybersecurity company Island and fintech company Rapyd, which each raised $250 million.
