The Capital fund operates on a classic venture model, investing in relevant companies during Seed and A funding stages.

"In the last year, fintech attracted record levels of investment in Israel,” said Sarit Firon, Managing Partner at Team8 Capital. “Fintech companies have been a part of our fund since the beginning, but with the rapid growth of the field, especially in Israel, Hadar will help us broaden our expertise."
