Last month, the Israeli Medtech company AIVF made headlines. The developer of an AI-based in vitro fertilization software platform announced it has raised $25 million in a first investment round led by Insight Partners, a New York-based venture capital and private equity firm.

There is a growing interest by Israeli investors and entrepreneurs in this domain.

Most patients need to go through more than one treatment cycle before a fertilized egg is implanted.
