PrefaceIn busy Startup Land the activity rate can often seem dizzying. In an ever-evolving internet industry, we like to pause every couple of years, zoom-out and look at things in perspective.
Our investment platforms – and Frs – are are at the heart of this space. Our team, together with our advisors, partners, the investment community and of course – our entrepreneurs, have set out once again to feel the pulse of the industry. To map and analyze, to compare, count, cover and converse to build a clear picture describing the state of this incredibly vibrant ecosystem. Our vast and active network spans all industry spaces, shapes and sizes.
As we did in our 1st edition in 2012 and in our 2nd edition in 2014, we do not settle for merely covering innovation and trends, but focus our analysis on companies with annual revenues exceeding $10M. This allows us a more realistic and sober point of view about the tangible opportunities ahead.
Our report consists of a number of elements – global internet trends, local industry movements, startup financing and exit statistics and a map of leading Israeli companies from a revenue, capital raised and valuation perspectives. In order to accurately achieve that, we interviewed dozens of industry leaders, we quantified numerous trends, as we rely on publicly available data as well as internal analysis.
Wherever we looked we witnessed a profound change, but this time, change itself is changing. This change is increasingly driving larger parts of the global ecosystem into fewer hands.

Winner takes all The 6th Continent
The 6th Continent is the fastest growing, largest in number of connected people and most influential out of any other continent

1It's a physical fact that “what goes up - must come down”. It’s a rule of nature. It’s a part of how the universe around us works.
For the first time in modern-time economy, the rules of nature alongside micro-economics are being rewritten. A handful of companies exhibit a phenomena which defies common logic. The idea of “diminishing marginal benefit” is now completely overruled by a set of companies that the larger they are, the faster they grow, and the more value they yield.
Those exponential giants are controlling entire sectors, dwarfing any competition, at the same time as they venture into adjacent sectors threatening to swallow them up too.
It’s a winner takes all economy, and its only going to get worse (or better, depending on who you ask)

From mobile-first to mobile-only
The mobile phone is not a gadget or a piece of technology. Its not an internet access point, a media, or a commerce platform. It’s not an app ecosystem, or an over glorified alarm clock.
It’s our life on a 5 inch screen.
We sleep with it, eat with it, we go to the bathroom with it, and we even make love with it. It’s a huge part of our family life, our work, our pastime, our friends, our shopping and travel.
In the past year, mobile usage hours per day grew so significantly that it deemed desktop to be a niche utility. Mobile commerce reached a tipping point, proving that 5 inches are enough for a shopping spree, and pointing towards the direction of the future.
A few years ago the marketing and startup communities coined the “Mobile-First” approach. We’ve now reached “Mobile-Only”.

E-Commerce is killing retail
A lot had been said about it, and many doomsday prophesies were already made in the past, but evidently, retails kept growing and business seemed to be doing just fine. Then came 2017. For the very first time this year, in what seems to be a major break point, E-Commerce in the US has eaten up practically all of retail growth, bringing brick-and-mortar to a complete standstill.This happens at a time when macro indicators in the US are super strong – GDP is rising for 8 straight years, gas prices are low, unemployment is at a historic 4.2% and wage growth is excellent, especially for low and middle-income families (low-income wage growth is actually the fastest in 30 years).2017 is also on track to break retail bankruptcies records, leaving more space for E-Commerce’s unstoppable, unavoidable growth.

Malls are in a downward spiral as more anchor stores are closing This further aggravates the already documented 50% decline in mall traffic since 2010
How a mall dies?Malls are massive retail spaces, so high traffic levels are crucial.When an “Anchor” chain is closing down, most other stores in the mall can break the contract without penalty, leading to further closures and secondary decrease in traffic.
This points to a highly predictable death of the entire mall.

Amazon is the big winner…
… and brick-and-mortar retail isn’t even built to compete
Why is retail doomed? Amazon is chasing a market cap of 1 trillion dollars, as the entire US retail sector is worth 1.6 trillion.
Amazon has 52% of US households with Amazon prime. That’s more than the percentile of households owning a gun (44%) or going to church (51%).

By trying to battle with E-Commerce’s pure-players, brick-and-mortar retailers are only making things worse and losing more money, according to Morgan Stanley.

AR and VR are starting to go from buzz to business
People’s “realities” used to follow clear definitions - if it’s in your computer than it’s digital, and if it’s in your hand - it’s physical.
Nothing seems so simple anymore.
The mobile revolution has led to a complete blurring of all lines separating the two. We use our mobile to access, enhance and enable so many real-life things - AR and VR technologies are the perfect blender, but not only them. Any app that is used as another organ of our physical existence (think Uber) is further bending and blending our grasp of what’s real and what’s not.
Look at money. We used to get “tokens” digitally and use it as money in real life, now we spend real money on “virtual” life, pay with our mobile or invest in a virtual coin. A real blend.
Once you stop seeing 2 playing fields alongside each other, and recognize a single, blended, new one - far more compelling and complicated - new opportunities emerge.

The automation economyAll economies, industries, even industrial revolutions, had one thing in common – humans. The human effort taken to produce and provide goods has taken on many shapes throughout the generations, but still stayed at the center of all our value-creating activities. People in general and more specifically in the investment industry are fascinated by the potential of autonomous vehicles, and the promise in robotics, or drones, or perfect voice recognition, and 3D printing is of course exciting as much as virtual agents and bots.
This is very much the wrong perspective.
None of those “industries” are really a standalone idea, but all are merely parts of a single, deeply innovative concept – the automation economy. The economy where a consumer buys and receives precious goods without anyone’s physical, human effort. Businesses around the world are already asking for it.
The good news is that it’s finally happening. The bad news is that its happening inside huge companies that don’t intend to share.
“It’s the (automation) economy, stupid”As the political world focused on the damage globalization had done to middle-income Americans, Obama admitted 5 weeks after the 2016 elections that the real jobs-killer was actually automation.

Adoption of automation and AI has reached the 20% tipping pointbut many companies are searching fruitlessly for more solutions
“In our survey of 3,000 C-level executives, across 10 countries and 14 sectors, 20 percent said they currently use any AI-related technology at scale or in a core part of their businesses”
McKinsey study, June 2017:
Investment in automation grew 4X in 6 years but the non-corporate share of it is much too small to make an impact
Investment level reached $26B-$39B in 2016
“The 6th Continent” - a small number of tech companies account for a massive share
External (non-corporate) investment in the automation economy can’t keep up
Where can non-tech companies (e.g. Nike) buy AI products and services?
~90% came from Google, Amazon, Apple and Baidu
Alibaba just decided to invest $15B in next 3 years
VC’s invest only 2-3% of their capital

Mazal Tov! After years of trying, playing, testing and building – the Israeli internet industry has reached it’s “Bar Mitzva moment” in 2017 – becoming a responsible adult that is doing serious things, systematically, and successfully.
It was June 2013 when Waze was sold to Google for over a billion dollars. We all stood there, proud, but deep inside we were trying to make up our minds – was this a glitch, an exception, our first and only internet unicorn (that is not an online gambling company)? Or are we capable of repeating it?

Our 3rd edition of the Israeli Internet report uncovered an unbelievable picture of growth and a new sense of maturity. We have many unicorns (12 of them), global B2C brands, super-bowl ads and a confident ecosystem not afraid to dream big, raise big and win bigger.
The Israeli internet industry has been changed by the world, be it the “winner takes all” phenomena or the E-commerce race. Now it’s strong enough to change the world.

”Keep Calm And Keep Growing“.
Taking direct inspiration from the global “winner takes all” trend, and supported by a stronger ecosystem of knowledge, capital and experience, Israeli entrepreneurs today are going all-in.
Examples like Taboola, Payoneer and Walkme to name a few, exhibit perfectly how our industry has moved from a pure “Innovation Nation” towards “Execution Nation”, as more and more companies are being built not merely on the knees of DNA-cracking, deep technological breakthroughs but more so on the power to build a global organization, fueled with aggressiveness and vision to become a growing winner.
Not so long ago, entrepreneurs used to pay lip-service when pitching a VC – “i want to build a real business instead of exit fast”. Today, it has become a realistic requirement.

But today, entrepreneurs and talent which have managed to gain strong B2C experience, some in the Gaming, Forex and Toolbar industries, are standing behind emerging global B2C success stories.

Money MovesLarger rounds –
Asian interest – large players from Asia, both investing platforms and corporates, have made “Aliya” and are becoming more and more active in financing Israeli VCs and Internet companies.
Less IPOs - building bigger companies means fewer mid-range exits and longer paths to IPOs.
4X more $50M+ rounds than previous report, more money from more sources is further building the industry
We’ve counted over 23 financing rounds of $50M or more since 2016 – 4X more than in previous report! We’ve witnessed local VCs investing larger sums in larger rounds than ever. New type of VCs – growth funds and late-stage funds have emerged and are doing exactly what they are set out to do. Israeli VCs are partnering with foreign players to build consortiums. VCs also learned how to help the founders also take small fortunes home in those large rounds to help extend the journey.

No more “50 shades of grey” only 12% in a gray type business, down from 70% in 2012
In the past, Israel’s largest internet companies where, how to put this, playing an opportunistic game with the somewhat darker corners of the internet.
In 2012’s report – 70% of the >$100M revenue companies were in the “grey” spaces like gambling, forex or porn. In 2014 the picture evened out, with less then 50% “grey".
In today’s report, no only did we double the 2012 number of >$100M revenue companies, but it happened with the “shades of grey” companies accounting for only ~12%.
Only 3 out of 24 leading Israeli internet companiesare grouped by "grey" industries

ICOIncubating Industry
Trend or Trash?
The Israeli ecosystem has competitive advantages in AI fields, such as computer vision, machine leaning, algorithms, big data and more.
Notwithstanding that, the technological depth required to build AI-based revenue generating companies and the fact that it’s still a global game of tech giants, means the road is still long.
The opportunity is clear but so is the challenge – to help this incubating industry recognize the most promising use cases, connect with global players and leverage the local knowledge and talent to build global winning companies in the fields of AI and automation.
ICOs are all the rave at the moment. The promise of access to capital without the complexities of stock markets or VCs has resonated with many companies which chose to offer a virtual coin in the market hoping to raise funds from believers. Also, the underlying technology platforms supporting it are fully in place, scalable and accessible.
More than 10 ICOs in the past year took place in Israel, with the most successful one (Bancor) raising no less then $150M in a matter of hours! Yet, none of the experts we interviewed were willing to be the ranch on this trend, but they were all “riding the wave”.
Will it become a sustainable method for tapping into global capital, or will it bet held to SEC-type regulation and die in its infancy? The verdict is till out.
