Investment Thesis
Swish Ventures is an operator-led Israeli firm investing at seed with a thesis that technical depth and founder access beat breadth. They concentrate capital into a small number of exceptional teams across cybersecurity, infrastructure and AI, then follow aggressively into winners through a dedicated opportunity vehicle rather than spreading capital across a large portfolio.
Manager's Experience
Founded by Omri Casspi, the former NBA player, as his second firm after Sheva. Raised $60 million for its second seed fund, bringing AUM to $125 million, and closed a further $100 million opportunity fund in December 2025. Has made 21 investments including nine unicorns; Cognition raised at a $47 billion valuation, and both Wonderful and Upwind more than doubled in value within a year. Operating partner Dana Alexandrovich supports portfolio companies on go-to-market into US enterprise buyers. Portfolio includes PointFive, Eon, Upwind, Wonderful, Irregular, Tenzai, Glow and Applied Compute.
