Investment thesis

RUNI Ventures invests at the pre-seed and seed stages in outstanding Israeli founders, including both Reichman University alumni and non-alumni, wherever they are based. The firm is sector agnostic, seeking bold and disruptive ideas across all technologies. Backed by Reichman University — Israel's first private university and a top global producer of entrepreneurs — the fund offers portfolio companies unique deal flow, resources, and access to elite industry leaders, unicorn founders, and post-exit entrepreneurs. It also runs a community of Alumni Venture Fellows who share deal flow, co-invest, and support founders with their expertise and networks.

Cherubic Ventures

Cherubic Ventures is known for investing before a startup even launches or reaches product-market fit, often as the first institutional investor, while also setting aside half of its latest fund for follow-on support all the way through pre-IPO; it was also one of the first venture firms to operate as a solo general partner and has grown into one of the largest funds run that way. Founded by Matt Cheng, who previously built two companies that each reached over $1 billion in public market value, the firm was designed from the start to invest across both the U.S. and Asia, backing early breakout companies in places like Croatia, Bangladesh, Japan, and Taiwan in addition to the U.S., with its Taipei roots still central to its identity alongside its Silicon Valley presence.
