IVC quarterly survey - Q2 2003

The gentle recovery in the Israeli venture capital market that was evident in the first quarter of this year appears to have gained momentum. Fundraising by Israeli high-tech companies continued to increase in the second quarter of 2003, according to the quarterly survey by the IVC Research Centre.

In Q2 2003, 86 Israeli high-tech companies raised $271m from venture investors, an increase of 28 per cent on the previous quarter. Of these, 12 companies raised between $5m and $10m, while eight companies received more than $10m each. However, the total raised in the first half of 2003 is still down on last year's figure by 28 per cent.
