Sovereign Capital Co-Investment Activity into Israel
annual
What this measures
Approximate count of publicly disclosed Gulf and Asian sovereign-fund or sovereign-adjacent platform co-investments into Israeli technology and infrastructure assets, by year. Co-investments are typically structured with a US or European GP as the on-paper lead and the sovereign as a passive minority — see the Strategic sovereign co-investment dictionary entry.

How to read it
The 2020 → 2021 step change captures the immediate post-Abraham Accords activity. The 2023 pullback reflects both the regional environment from October 2023 onward and the global VC cycle reset. The 2024 partial recovery is driven mostly by Asian sovereign-adjacent platforms (Temasek, GIC, and Singaporean family-linked vehicles) rather than Gulf re-engagement.
What it does not show
Deal count is a coarse measure of capital flow. A single large infrastructure co-investment can dwarf ten technology minority positions on dollar terms. The series is useful as an activity barometer, not as a capital-flow estimate. For deal-by-deal underlying, see the entity pages for Mubadala, ADIA, and ADQ.
