US and Israeli startups show near-identical median times from Series B to C+ rounds
- US median Series B to C+ round time is 21 months
- Israel median Series B to C+ round time is 22 months
- Seed to Series A median times match at 16 months in both countries
Across the 805 Series B to C+ round pairs Brouky tracks in the US and 80 in Israel from 2015 to today, startups in both countries take nearly the same median time to progress. The US median duration between these rounds is 21 months, compared to 22 months in Israel, indicating similar later-stage round velocities.
Earlier-stage round transitions show the same pattern of parity. Both countries have a median of 16 months between seed and Series A rounds, based on 776 US and 88 Israeli pairs. The interquartile ranges are also closely aligned, with the US p25 and p75 months at 9 and 27 and Israel at 9 and 28 respectively.
MEDIAN MONTHS BETWEEN FUNDING ROUNDS
Between Series A and B, the median times remain equal at 18 months, with 799 US pairs and 104 Israeli pairs analyzed. The US p25 to p75 range is 10 to 29 months, while Israel’s is slightly narrower at 10 to 26 months.
These consistent median durations across all three round transitions suggest that both ecosystems progress startups at comparable speeds through funding stages, despite the US market’s larger scale. This comparison may partly reflect expanding data coverage over time. The interquartile ranges for the US and Israel also closely align, indicating similar variability in round timing.
