The Coller Institute of Venture aims to be pre-eminent in combining practice with theory in the fields of venture, innovation, and entrepreneurship.
The core activities of the Institute are to sponsor research, education, and outreach programs that are impactful on a global scale. Among our aims is that the best practices we articulate help to more reliably scale new entrepreneurial ventures into mature operating companies.
The Coller Institute of Venture, as part of the larger Coller Venture Ecosystem, is composed of three core pillars: The Coller Venture Review; the Coller Startup Competition; and the Coller Ignite Club.
The Coller Venture Review combines theory with practice in the areas of venture, innovation, and entrepreneurship. Across changing technology paradigms and industries, we draw on the insights and expertise of a range of scholars, leaders, and thinkers. Our articles continue to articulate emerging trends, extract generalizable themes, and lend insights associated with the codification of new ways of thinking linked to action in new venture creation.
Participating in the university's startup competition opens the door to an exciting entrepreneurial adventure, offering the chance to win a $100,000 prize in each of the three tracks: Online Tech, FoodTech, and DeepTech. Throughout this journey, you'll gain access to a vast network of venture capital industry professionals in Israel and worldwide, have the opportunity to attend numerous entrepreneurial, startups and high-tech events, and make substantial strides in advancing the stature of your startup.
Ignite is an entrepreneurial community that allows students and alumni to explore an entrepreneurial path as part of the on-campus experience; by participating in events, engaging with other entrepreneurs, sharing ideas, and creating new partnerships. It's your place to venture out of your comfort zone and get all the support you need to grow, learn, and discover the entrepreneur in you.
We believe entrepreneurship is a key growth engine, both on personal and national levels, therefore, we actively encourage the inclusion of all the different sectors in Israeli society to participate in our entrepreneurial activities.
