IVC Reports: Investors In Israeli Companies Earned Nearly $7B In 2014

January 7, 2015 | According to the IVC Research Center and the Meitar Liquornik law firm, investors earned $6.94 million from selling stakes in Israeli technology companies in 2014. This is a five percent increase from last year, which was boosted mainly by the increase of stock market listings. This is the third highest figure after 2006 and 2012, years that were marked by major acquisitions of Israeli companies.”2014 was an excellent year for Israeli high tech even though there was not a mega deal,” said Koby Simana, chief executive of the IVC Research Center. The largest Israeli public offering this year was issued by automobile technology company Mobileye, in which it raised $890 million on the New York Stock Exchange.
