Raising funds for a startup is a difficult task for most entrepreneurs. Making sure you don’t lose too much of your equity in the negotiations with investors is even harder. If there was only a way to raise funds without giving up equity… but there is! A variety of state and international funds offer attractive fund-raising options without the need to give up equity. In this article we will explore a few of them that are open to Israeli based Startups. The list is divided by company stage, and details: fund’s name and link, fund’s source, objectives, conditions for participation, amount offered, percent of financing (for example if it is 85%, the company has to add 15% on top of the amount offered), Repay (either, only if project is successful, or, grant, that does not require repay).
