97212 Ventures is a platform-based solo-GP fund that specifically helps Israeli founders expand into New York City, with the fund name literally combining Israel's country code (972) with NYC's area code (212). The fund operates as a structured "NYC network in a box" by assembling go-to-market boards of senior U.S. executives around each portfolio company and positioning itself as the small but highly strategic cap-table partner for Israeli founders entering the U.S. market.
