Best Media & Entertainment Companies in Israel
The 598 best Media & Entertainment companies in Israel in 2026, ranked by funding and momentum. Funding, investors, founders, valuation, tech stack and live signals. Top: Lightricks.
Ranked by disclosed equity funding and recent momentum, this is your go-to map of the Media & Entertainment companies building real weight in Israel. 598 of them tracked, $1.8B in total disclosed funding, and one unicorn already on the board. That's a serious prize pool for a sector where the global revenue base sat at $1.96T in 2021, compounding at a 7.41% CAGR. And across 3,108 media and social apps on the Play Store, median installs grew +12% YoY. The curve is bending up, fast.
Lightricks leads the funding table at $335M, with WSC Sports close behind at $136M. Those two alone tell you the range here: creative tools on one end, sports-data media on the other. Bria ($24M) and Panjaya ($10M) are the names I'd watch next, given how hot audio editor and playback-engine themes have gotten in recent coverage. So where does the real momentum live? Demand drivers like VR, AR, and smarter media-attribution tools are pulling capital toward exactly the kind of infrastructure plays this directory surfaces. Investors like The Builders, Kaedan Capital, and 2B Angels are already placing their bets.
