We tap into the most promising Israeli entrepreneurs and enable them to perform on the biggest stage on the planet: New York City. ICONYC labs, based in NYC, is a first of its kind acceleration program customized for early-stage Israeli tech startups to help them become successful global companies. Over the course of four months, ICONYC labs partners with innovative Israeli tech startups to help validate and grow their businesses in the most capital efficient manner.
Israeli entrepreneurs are always welcome to reach out to Eyal or Arie and share info on their startups.
However, most of our companies have been recommended to us by other tech founders and people
we know in the community. If you can be introduced to us by a member of our network, it is preferred
and will generally get a quicker response.
We start our partnership with a 4-month acceleration program that includes:
A typical ICONYC labs company is a software-driven tech startup with 2-3 founders and a product already out in the market. As for sectors, our interests are diverse: Enterprise Software, SaaS, IoT, Ad Tech, Health & Wellness, Education, AI, Robotics, AR/VR, and many more. We look for companies that can scale fast, are capital-efficient and where NYC is the right entry point for their product, service or application.
No.
We are looking for companies that have already assembled a team and developed an initial product and have some level of traction (pilots, revenue). For the most part, we work with seed and post seed startups.
Probably not. Most of our companies have raised $500K-$3.5M prior to joining our program, and see us as a strategic partner to accelerate their growth and helping them build a base in NYC.
We’ve moved our acceleration program so it’s completely virtual, and you can now take advantage of all of its benefits from wherever you are.
On top of $20,000 in seed capital, we provide co-working and meeting spaces at AlleyNYC in Chelsea. We’ll also assist you with logistics, including immigration, banking, accounting and other key services.
In exchange for this partnership, ICONYC receives common equity which varies based on the stage of the company. We look at this as the most strategic equity the company gives during it’s lifetime.
We want to hear from you! Please get in touch for more information.
