Investment Thesis

Hanaco Ventures focuses on backing founders early and through growth with a hands-on, partnership-oriented approach: they invest in “raw potential” and work to turn it into “lasting success” by providing capital, strategic guidance, networks, and long-term operational support. They emphasize decisiveness and execution over talk, backing entrepreneurs “before they trend” and helping them scale globally from a base in Israel (Tel Aviv) to markets such as New York.

Investment Focus

Who should take a closer look

Hanaco Venture Capital is most relevant for founders raising Pre-Seed, Seed, and Series A rounds in AI/ML, Cybersecurity, Fintech, and Adtech, especially across Israel, United States, and Tel Aviv.

Focus statement

Sector- and stage-agnostic within technology, Hanaco explicitly targets transformative companies across cyber, fintech, marketing-tech, and enterprise software, while also supporting consumer-facing and frontier technologies (AI, blockchain, drones); they invest from early visionaries to growth-stage leaders and place special emphasis on Israeli founders expanding to the U.S.

Value Add

  • Hands-on, post-term-sheet involvement: "We don’t disappear after the term sheet. From strategic guidance to late-night calls, our battle-tested experience is no match for any challenge."
  • Early, conviction-led investing: "Decisive when it counts. Less talking, more building - with founders who do the same."
  • Local roots + global bridge-building: "Rooted in Israel’s thriving tech scene and plugged into a global network, we connect bold founders to a web of capital, partners, and opportunity, from Tel Aviv to New York and beyond."
  • Pattern recognition and corporate connectivity from partners' backgrounds — the team leverages relationships with global players (Softbank, Fujitsu, NTT, Vodafone, British Telecom) to open cross-border pathways for portfolio companies.
  • Specific AI thesis insight: they seek "vertically integrated agentic solutions in verticals that have high levels of complexity either due to regulation / compliance, or due to shortcomings of LLMs," demonstrating sector-specialized sub-thesis application.
