Mind the Tech Berlin 2025
“Investment in Israeli tech in 2025 is expected to exceed $12 billion”
Fiona Darmon, Managing Partner at Sunvest Capital Partners, added at Mind the Tech Berlin 2025: “Investments themselves are becoming more concentrated and precise. More capital, but in a smaller number of deals.”
“It is an honor to open the Mind the Tech Berlin 2025 conference by Calcalist and Bank Leumi and to mark 60 years of business partnership between Israel and Germany - a stable and deep partnership based on trust and a shared vision of a secure and advanced future,” said Fiona Darmon, Managing Partner at Sunvest Capital Partners.
"Germany is Israel’s largest trading partner in Europe, with over €7B in trade, 1,600 Israeli companies active locally, and more than 300 German corporations collaborating with Israeli technologies. This partnership delivers real value every single day. This week we also marked a historic milestone as Germany became the first country outside Israel to deploy the Arrow 3 system.
"But the relationship reaches far beyond defense. Israeli innovation continues to shape global industries including deep tech, cyber, space, autonomous systems, smart mobility, digital health, advanced energy and more. When German industrial strength meets Israeli creativity and speed, entire sectors transform.
"Investor confidence in Israeli tech remains strong. Investments are projected to exceed $12B in 2025, up from $10B last year. Moreover, global investors continue to be drawn to Israeli innovation, with 75 percent of investments in 2024 coming from international investors. Secondary transactions, one of the fastest growing investment areas, are enabling companies and investment funds to scale and maximize potential while providing meaningful liquidity to early investors and employees.

"All of this progress comes despite one of the most painful periods in our history, especially since October 7. In the face of tragedy, we witnessed extraordinary resilience: the bravery of soldiers and civilians, unwavering national solidarity, and the return of most of the hostages, alongside the uncompromising commitment to bring everyone home. This resilience is part of who we are, and it is what enables us to stand strong and keep moving forward.
"Sixty years of partnership is only the beginning. There is much more we can build together."
