"This is not a particularly easy time to get investment," he added, noting the number of flights to Israel that have been cancelled. CONFIDENCE EARNEDThat said, Hasson and others expect Israel's tech sector to rebound in the same way it has in past conflicts with Palestinian and Hezbollah militants. Medved said that he believes that Israel will prevail as an tech investment destination. "Historically, every time Israel has gone to war, long term has been a buy side," he said. "That shift may even help push those investors who might have been reluctant (to invest in Israel)," he said.

JERUSALEM, Sept 26 (Reuters) - Israeli high-tech firms raised $1.7 billion in the third quarter, preliminary data showed on Tuesday, in a sign that investment in startups is stabilising. The amount raised in the third quarter was down 38% over the same period in 2022 but only 14% lower from the second quarter, the IVC Research Center and LeumiTech said in a report. Israeli tech companies have raised $5.3 billion so far this year, with $1.9 billion coming in the second quarter. In all of 2022, tech firms raised nearly $16 billion, mainly in the first half before the global economic slowdown, higher interest rates and weak stock markets hit. The Israeli government's plan to overhaul the country's judiciary has also harmed fundraising, with many investors wary and vocal about the country's democratic health.
