Background

Zvi Limon is a long-time Israeli technology investor. Magma Venture Partners describes him as a partner at Magma since the firm’s inception and an active investor in public and private technology companies for more than twenty-five years. Taboola’s 2026 proxy states that he has been an active investor in public and private technology companies in Israel and abroad since 1990.

Limon co-founded Magma Venture Partners in the late 1990s and remains a General Partner. Magma is an Israeli venture capital firm founded in 1999 and focused on Israel’s information, communications, and technology sector, including software, semiconductors, and new media. His activity has been especially concentrated in communications, internet, and semiconductors.

Earlier in his career, Limon worked in Silicon Valley in the early 1980s and later in investment banking at Rothschild Inc. in New York, according to Startup Nation Finder. Taboola’s proxy and board biography also state that he was a management consultant at Bain & Co. in London and Shaldor Ltd. in Israel. He holds an MBA from INSEAD and a BA in Economics / Business Administration from Bar-Ilan University.

He has served on boards of both public and private companies. Taboola says he has been on its board since 2007 and chairman since 2018. Magma’s team page says he has represented Magma on the boards of Autotalks, Xplenty, and Nubo; Startup Nation Finder also lists board history including DSPG, CEVA, Tefron, Autotalks, and GI View.
