The new fund plans to invest in around 12 startups, with an average investment of approximately $20 million per deal, primarily focusing on four key areas: cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, defense, and infrastructure. The investment stages will mainly target seed and Series A rounds, with the flexibility to co-lead with other funds or participate as a syndicate member in funding rounds. The firm also operates an opportunity fund to double down on portfolio companies during later growth stages. Swish Ventures has become an active force in Israel's venture capital ecosystem, with its portfolio spanning multiple cybersecurity and deep tech sectors. After retiring from professional basketball, Casspi has gradually transitioned into a tech investor.
