IGP fills Israel's growth equity vacuum
Former Microsoft executive Moshe Lichtman and former NICE Systems Ltd. CEO Haim Shani have founded an investment fund, Israel Growth Partners (IGP), to help adolescent technology companies grow. The company, which raised $250 million in early 2014, recently made its second investment. Lichtman believes that there is a gap in the Israeli market for growth equity, a model that has existed in the US for over 15 years. Growth equity funds specialize in a particular stage of a companys life-cycle and provide a larger investment than typical venture capital, with the goal of speeding the companys growth.
