About Us

 

Since Fruition was established in 2004, the company has invested in and developed many startups and patented innovations. Fruition’s unique strategy is to screen start-up companies to determine which are most likely to generate the required success to reach fulfillment. Fruition’s methodology was founded upon vast experience and specific achievements that have been made with  successful investments in the past. Fruition considers preparation of business schemes, as well as market and financial analysis while screening for the next investment project.

In 2012, Fruition LTD established a subsidiary in the U.S., Fruition Inc., which comes as a result of our strong network of investors and partners in the U.S. that need our physical presence to expand our business operations. Our expansion to the U.S. will allow for more opportunities to screen and filter technologies worldwide, and welcome more partnership with U.S. investors. The main target of establishing Fruition Inc. is to connect our Israel office to Fruitions U.S. office in Chicago, IL. Fruition Inc. is in partnership with several U.S. investor groups, advisory firms, and business organizations that work in collaboration with the U.S. and Israel.

Fruition believes having specialized and professional staff is vital for screening and managing investment projects. Thus, the team is comprised of individuals with specific strengths in the areas of information management, business development, capital raising and intellectual property trade. 

Working together in synergy allows for the fulfillment of its client's endeavors, in the best way possible.
