The historic $23 billion acquisition of Israeli startup Wiz by Google is welcome news and a testament to the strength and resilience of Israel’s hi-tech space. If the deal goes through, it will be Google’s largest acquisition and the highest amount offered for an Israeli startup since Intel purchased Mobileye in 2017 for $15.3 billion. Following a few years of headwinds, including the recent war, Google’s vote of confidence is likely to buoy the Israeli startup sector. Google Israeli Startups

Deal would be tech giant’s largest acquisition ever.

Despite the war, Israeli startup fundraising is still going strong, with $3.1 billion raised since October 7th. Although this is somewhat lower than 6 months prior to the war when $4.3 billion was raised, this is still impressive, given that 15% of Israeli startup employees were serving in reserve IDF units and economic challenges. This demonstrates the resilience of Israeli startups which are poised to rebound in the near future.

Israeli high-tech startups are still raising funds despite the country's war with Palestinian Islamist group Hamas, although at a slightly slower pace, Startup Nation Central (SNC) said in a report.
