>> Investment Focus
* We value teams that are diverse, supportive of each other and exceptionally committed.
* We value software. We are more li
kely to invest our capital in teams that already invested their own resources and actually created something.
* We think Global. We appreciate teams that think global from day one, and validate their thesis with their target markets.
* We are vertical-agnostic. The world is changing so fast these days, what’s a vertical anyway?!
* We have a preference for startups with Israeli founders. We know the pros and the cons, we think we can help maximize the value of the first while working around the latter.
* We’d recommend you download “Raising Your Seed Round: A Playbook for Israeli Entrepreneurs” – our how-to guide on everything from securing a face-to-face meeting with a VC to securing a term sheet.
>> What does lool mean? If you write lool, in lower-case, or turn it upside down, it kinda looks like 1001, which is a subtle hint of just how much we subscribe to the view that software is what it’s all about in the digital era. It turns out lool is also a Hebrew word, and it means a Crib, or a Hatchery, or a Chicken Coop. In fact, we like to think of lool Ventures as all of these combined – a place where precious things are born and raised, and quickly grow.
>> Things We Are Not
Accelerators are great. We are not an accelerator. Incubators are wonderful. We are not an incubator. Hamama is also a Hebrew word, just like lool. We are not one. We are not fond of jokes related to chicken and eggs. We’ve heard them all. Unless you come up with a really new one, in which case, by all means, we’d love to hear it
