Red Dot Capital Partners
Description
Red Dot Capital Partners is an Israeli-based growth-stage venture capital fund established in 2016. Headquartered in Savyon, Israel, the firm primarily focuses on investing in Israeli-related technology companies that demonstrate proven products, significant revenue, and strong global expansion potential. Their strategic backing by Temasek, Singapore's sovereign wealth fund, provides a unique advantage, offering portfolio companies access to global networks and strategic partnerships, particularly in Asia.
The fund targets companies that are typically generating between $10 million and $50 million in annual recurring revenue, indicating their preference for businesses that have moved beyond early-stage product-market fit and are poised for substantial scaling. Red Dot Capital Partners is known for its hands-on approach, providing not just capital but also strategic guidance, operational support, and access to a vast network of industry experts and potential customers. Their investment philosophy emphasizes long-term partnerships with management teams, aiming to help companies navigate the complexities of international growth and market leadership.
Red Dot Capital Partners has successfully raised multiple funds, demonstrating consistent growth and investor confidence. Their third and most recent fund, Red Dot Capital Partners III, closed in 2023 with $270 million, signifying their increasing capacity to deploy significant capital into promising ventures. Initial investment cheques typically range from $10 million to $30 million, allowing them to take meaningful stakes in their portfolio companies. As of early 2024, their portfolio includes over 20 companies across diverse sectors such as enterprise software, cybersecurity, fintech, and digital health, reflecting a broad yet focused investment thesis within the tech ecosystem.
