Background

Amir Oliker is a Partner at Israel Growth Partners (IGP), a growth-stage investment firm managing roughly $800M across multiple funds and a portfolio of around 23 companies. He brings roughly a decade of experience in investments, strategy, and finance, and focuses on backing later-stage Israeli technology companies as they scale into global category leaders.

Before joining IGP, Amir was a Principal at Peninsula Growth Fund, where he led investments across high-tech, services, and retail companies. Earlier in his career he spent about five years at McKinsey & Company, concentrating on private equity and corporate strategy, and began his career on the deal advisory team at KPMG.

Amir's education is strong and finance-heavy: he holds an MBA from INSEAD (2014–2015), an M.A. in Law from Bar-Ilan University, and a B.A. in Accounting and Economics (magna cum laude) from Tel Aviv University, and he is a Certified Public Accountant (CPA). This combination of accounting, law, consulting, and growth-investing background shapes his hands-on, operationally minded approach to board work.

At IGP he takes active board roles rather than passive checks. He has served as a board member/director for companies including McMakler (real estate tech), StoreNext (retail data/fintech), and LocusView (infrastructure/utility software), and has been publicly associated with IGP's investments in Novidea (insurtech) and SafeBreach (cybersecurity).

Investment Thesis & Focus

  • Invests at growth stage, not seed — IGP partners with established companies that already have product differentiation and a proven business model, then helps them scale globally.
  • Typical firm check sizes run from about $10M up to $110M, with an average entry around $19M; this is institutional growth capital, not angel-sized tickets.
  • Sector focus centers on B2B/enterprise technology: enterprise software, cybersecurity, fintech and insurtech, logistics, and data-driven platforms.
  • IGP emphasizes alignment of interests and value-added, hands-on guidance from a team of former technology executives and seasoned investors — Amir personally takes board seats and works closely with management teams.
  • Says "yes" to strong management teams with a differentiated product and a credible path to becoming a global category leader, reflecting IGP's stated mission of helping Israeli-related companies build large global businesses.

Notable Investments

  • SafeBreach — Cybersecurity (breach-and-attack simulation); IGP co-led a ~$53.5M Series D (2021), which Amir publicly announced.
  • Novidea — Insurtech data platform for insurance brokers/agents; IGP participated in its Series B and remained an investor through later rounds.
  • McMakler — German proptech/real-estate brokerage; Amir has served on the board.
  • StoreNext — Israeli retail data / fintech company; Amir has served on the board.
  • LocusView — Digital construction / utility infrastructure software; Amir has served on the board.
  • DealHub — Revenue-workflow / CPQ SaaS platform; IGP invested (2021).
  • Visually.io — No-code e-commerce experience platform; referenced by Amir in his public posts.
  • Broader IGP portfolio he is part of includes Cellebrite, HiBob, Optimove, Earnix, LiveU, Zadara, SysAid, Panaya, Valens, and D-Fend Solutions (acquired by Motorola Solutions for ~$1.5B).
