      Innovative Investment Model faz parceria com Kibbutzim para prototipar e testar tecnologias emergentes para escalar globalmente

      TEL AVIV, Israel, 19 de julho de 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- FLORA Ventures™ anuncia o lançamento de seu fundo de US$ 80 milhões e seu primeiro fechamento com compromissos de US$ 50 milhões, tornando-se o maior capital de risco agroalimentar com sede em Israel. E, de acordo com os dados do IVC, é o maior novo fundo de VC israelense a concluir um primeiro fechamento em 2023 em todos os setores de investimento em tecnologia.

      Esther Barak-Landes, cofundador, FLORA Ventures

      A FLORA Ventures investe em startups em estágio inicial de dois dos principais ecossistemas agroalimentares, Israel e Europa, que estão construindo um sistema agroalimentar mais saudável, sustentável e resiliente; e apóia esses negócios em escala global.

      O modelo do fundo é único por ser o primeiro fundo de capital de risco a explorar os pioneiros agrícolas inovadores "originais" do mundo, os kibutzim israelenses, como investidores e parceiros-âncora.

      Os cofundadores da FLORA Ventures são Gil Horsky, ex-executivo da Mondelēz, investidor de corporate venture e figura de destaque no ecossistema agroalimentar global, e Esther Barak-Landes, renomada investidora de capital de risco e cofundadora da incubadora e braço de investimentos da Nielsen. Eles garantiram financiamento em apenas quatro meses, identificando uma oportunidade para preencher lacunas tecnológicas, como segurança alimentar, digitalização, agricultura sustentável e alimentos como remédios.

      Eles concluíram o aumento inicial com parceiros estratégicos de primeira linha, incluindo Sadot Kibbutzim, uma cooperativa que reúne mais de 185 kibutzim com produção agrícola de +$ 3 bilhões exportada para mais de 100 países. Eles oferecem ao portfólio do fundo acesso exclusivo a terras agrícolas, capacidades de produção e experiência para uma prova inicial de conceito e a capacidade de dimensionar suas tecnologias.

      Alguns dos outros investidores âncora da FLORA neste primeiro fechamento são Family Offices líderes e:

      Grupo Haifa: líder mundial em nutrição vegetal e fertilizantes especiais. Os esforços da empresa em sustentabilidade, inovação e agricultura de precisão, juntamente com 18 subsidiárias em todo o mundo que distribuem para mais de 100 países, a tornam uma parceira ideal para ajudar as start-ups da FLORA a desenvolver capacidades de marketing.

      Harel Group – o maior grupo segurador e financeiro de Israel com mais de US$ 100 bilhões em ativos sob gestão (AUM). Isso dá à FLORA acesso a um investidor financeiro e institucional de primeira linha que pode fornecer suporte e investimentos subsequentes às empresas do portfólio do fundo.

      Gil Horsky e Esther Barak-Landes dizem que o ponto de inflexão do COVID-19, a guerra na Ucrânia e a crise climática enfatizaram a urgência de um fundo como a FLORA Ventures para acelerar a inovação e o impacto na indústria agroalimentar de US$ 8 trilhões.

      Eles aproveitaram a oportunidade para criar o fundo aproveitando suas habilidades e redes complementares: a experiência de liderança global de Horsky em empresas multinacionais de alimentos, incluindo Mondelēz, PepsiCo e Kraft Foods, e o histórico comprovado de investimento de Barak-Landes em startups de tecnologia disruptiva. incluindo liderar as primeiras rodadas para o que se tornou empresas de tecnologia unicórnio de capital aberto, incluindo Payoneer, Amwell e Playtika.

      "Tive a sorte em minha carreira de liderar grandes negócios de capital de risco nos setores de tecnologia de varejo, fintech e transformação digital, permitindo-me reaplicar tecnologias e modelos de negócios comprovados à indústria agroalimentar, onde é extremamente necessário. . Estou entusiasmado por poder contribuir com minhas habilidades para encontrar e conduzir start-ups de Israel e da Europa que sejam boas para as pessoas e respeitosas com o planeta, ao mesmo tempo em que ajudo a construir a próxima geração de unicórnios agroalimentares", disse Barak-Landes .

      "Trabalhar para grandes multinacionais de alimentos, bem como cofundar uma das mais bem-sucedidas iniciativas de capital de risco corporativo (CVC) e incubação do setor na Mondelēz, me ensinou o valor de ter parceiros de design desde o início. É por isso que estamos entusiasmados com o fato de a FLORA poder fornecer às nossas startups acesso exclusivo ao Haifa Group, Sadot Kibbutzim e Harel Group, que estão entre os parceiros de design mais inovadores e ágeis do setor", disse Horsky.

      A FLORA Ventures já concluiu seu primeiro investimento na Arrakis Bio, uma startup israelense furtiva que desenvolve tecnologia inovadora pronta para revolucionar a produção e a utilização de colágeno e gelatina humanos puros, de alta qualidade e sem origem animal.
