 Israeli Giza Venture Capital is to launch its fourth fund targeting $200m. The firm expects to have fully committed its $211m third fund before the close of the quarter with two to four new investments.
The new fund will follow the investment strategy of its predecessor, focusing on early-stage companies as well as a couple of opportunistic later stage deals. The firm typically invests between $3m and $8m over the life of a deal.
Giza invests in life sciences, communications, enterprise software and IT. The firm has recently increased its life science allocation from ten per cent to 30 per cent.
Investors in existing Giza funds include GE Equity, NIB Capital, Deutsche Banc, Credit Suisse Asset Management, Bessemer Trust, GIC, Temasek, Bank Hapoalim and Bank Leumi. A significant proportion of these existing investors are expected to take part in the new fund.
