The Lightspeed team has invested in Israeli companies for over ten years, with exits such as Galileo Technology and Terayon. We strongly believe in the innovation and technology excellence that characterizes Israeli entrepreneurs and their ability to create world-class companies.

We officially opened our Israel office in 2006 and hope to bring value to our Israeli entrepreneurs with our collective industry expertise and our experience in building leading businesses worldwide.

As part of our seed investment initiative, we have launched the Lightspeed-Gemini Internet Lab, a joint initiative with Gemini Israel Funds to seed early-stage, Israel-based Internet companies.
