How we help

We have been there. Building a company from scratch is a challenge. Whether it’s sourcing leads, finding talent, meeting with investors or bouncing-off ideas on their next big move, we always offer a helping hand to our companies.

Entrepreneurial advice

BrightCap’s General Partners are entrepreneurs with operational hands-on experience and a number of successful exits. We focus only on a handful of portfolio companies so that we can provide them with valuable, in-depth support.

Global network

We rely on an extensive network to support both the evaluation of potential investments and expansion of portfolio companies. Our advisors open doors, step in with expertise and provide a bridge to The Valley, Europe and Israel.

Corporate backing

Our corporate partners offer quick validation of ideas and commercialization opportunities. Together, we run accelerator programmes looking for cutting-edge tech start-ups ready to unlock value from technology.

Continuous support

We encourage our companies to develop their full potential. Quantum leaps in scale usually require further capital and we have set aside a significant part of our fund for follow-on investments in our portfolio companies.
