Apply to scale your business with Startup Nation Central at MNC Summit 2025.
Turn Your Grant into Growth
You’ve secured public funding. Now it’s time to take the next step and connect with active investors who recognize the value of your innovation.
Our Grant Matching Event at MNC Summit 2025 is your opportunity to move beyond early validation and attract the private investment needed to scale. Through targeted matchmaking and curated 1:1 meetings, you’ll meet investors looking for startups exactly like yours: ambitious, innovative, and already de-risked by public support.
Opening New Funding Pathways
Grant Matching bridges the gap between public grants and private capital. You’ve earned the backing of the Israel Innovation Authority (IIA) and now we want to help you reach investors who value diligence, credibility, and high-potential innovation.
This isn’t a demo day or a pitch competition. It’s a strategic opportunity to build real relationships with investors who are actively seeking companies to co-fund and startups with a clear path to scale.
What to Expect
Meet active investors looking to co-fund grant-backed startups and drive early-stage growth.
Receive pre-scheduled meetings based on your sector, stage, and funding needs
Showcase your startup to Startup Nation Central’s trusted investor network through a focused, high-quality platform.
Leverage your IIA grant to unlock private investment and reach your next milestone faster.
