About

Impact First Investments is an Israeli investment firm designed to leverage local technology and innovation to create global social impact. By investing exclusively in socially driven Israeli start-ups, the firm aims to position itself at the intersection of global social challenges and the technological solutions that address them. In order to realize its objective, Impact First Investments aggregates traditional investment and philanthropic capital to provide early-stage financing for viable, socially driven technology companies. Because of the for-profit nature and social motivation of its portfolio, the firm invests primarily in companies that could not otherwise be established, stabilized, or reach their intended markets without its financing and contribution.
