43 Israeli startups raised more $755 million in October 2020

What do "mine", "stuff", and "walnut" have in common? These are the names of 3 out of the 43 companies, out of the 43 that grabbed funds in October 2020.

In September, Israeli startups raised a record-breaking $1.2 billion in investments, so now, every number would seem “low” compared to this – Even October’s $755.64 million, which was totally raised by 43 startups.

7 SCARY MONSTERS THAT HAUNT EVERY STARTUP

Zombies and werewolves and mummies, oh my! They may not exist in real life, but the struggles that founders stumble upon when starting a new business are very real- and just as scary! For this Halloween special, we write about seven real startup struggles, reimagined as creepy monsters. Muhahahaha!!

Halloween is here, the fun holiday for kids and grownups, going trick or treating, dressing up in scary costumes, and watching horror movies. However, not only do monsters exist in movies and costumes, we are also surrounded by them in real life. New startups and entrepreneurs are facing them every day, hoping that their company will be “the one that makes it out alive”.

THE FUTURE OF A POST-CORONAVIRUS WORLD

THE GLOBAL PANDEMIC HAS CHANGED OUR LIVES IN SO MANY WAYS, AND EVEN ONCE A VACCINE FOR COVID-19 WILL BE FOUND, THE WORLD WILL NEVER BE QUITE THE SAME IN TRAVEL, WORKPLACES, HEALTHCARE, AND EVERYDAY LIFE.

The impact of COVID-19 has changed the way we look at things. Today, many of us are reasserting control over our lives in ways big and small. We are now even more concerned with our health, the ability to access food and other necessities, our job security, and our finances
