Our Partners

After facilitating several successful governmental programs in Italy, Slovenia, and the United States, Arieli Capital has become an expert in connecting investments and innovation across the globe, particularly in ecosystems where raising capital has proven more difficult.  

The Slovenia-Israel Governmental Accelerator brings together startups and industry leaders for collaborative one-on-one business meetings and a Final Expo and Pitch Event to present their ventures to top-of-the-field investors, government officials, and industry leaders. This program provides an unparalleled opportunity for early-stage Slovenian startups to gain access to global stakeholders and capital. 

The uniqueness of the governmental model

In a market saturated with startup accelerators, the Slovenia-Israel Governmental Accelerator stands out for a few reasons. 

First, we conduct a rigorous startup selection process, attracting top investors to our programs and ensuring that startups are well-suited for the program so they can get the most out of it.  

Second, we offer hundreds of one-on-one meetings with global investors, industry leaders, academic and research institutions, and government officials, connecting selected Slovenian startups with the advanced Israeli tech ecosystem and creating global industry connections and invaluable opportunities for collaboration.  

Third, participating startups have a unique opportunity to present their ventures at the program’s Expo & Pitch Event in the heart of Israel’s business district, attracting the attention of Israeli innovators and investors. 

Fourth, we follow up with our program graduates’ months after the program, assisting them in maintaining meaningful connections and securing investments.
