Investment thesis
Maccabee Ventures is a NYC-based early-stage venture fund that bridges the Israeli and North American startup ecosystems. It backs early-stage founders with more than capital, providing hands-on guidance, tailored introductions, and deep ecosystem access to help sharpen market understanding and product-market fit. Positioning itself as a strategic, all-in partner amid the rise of 'seed strapping,' the firm leverages cross-continental relationships to help portfolio companies enter new markets. Though sector agnostic, it maintains specialized knowledge in aging and longevity (SilverTech), enterprise/B2B SaaS, fintech, proptech, cybersecurity, and converging technologies like AI, ML, and NLP. It does not invest in bio, pharma, or hardware.
