VentureIsrael Welcomes Evgenia Zaslavskaya as New Venture Partner

VentureIsrael, a prominent venture capital fund focusing on early-stage deep tech enterprises, has announced the significant addition of Evgenia Zaslavskaya to its team as a Venture Partner. This strategic move underscores the fund's commitment to enhancing its international communications and providing invaluable support to its portfolio companies.

Evgenia Zaslavskaya is a seasoned public relations professional with over 15 years of experience in the field. She is the founder and CEO of Zecomms, an international communications agency that serves technology companies and investment funds across several regions, including the United States, the UK, Europe, and the MENA area. Her expertise in managing public relations is further highlighted by her recognition as the Best Leader in Public Relations and Communications at the Davos Communications Awards in 2025.

Zaslavskaya has been actively managing VentureIsrael's public and media relations since 2022. Her new role, however, expands this collaboration and officially brings her into the venture partner team of the fund. Rafael Gold, Managing Partner at VentureIsrael, commented, "We've worked with Evgenia and her team for several years now and have seen first-hand how much strategic communications shape the way the market perceives a fund and the companies it backs. Bringing her into the venture partner team is a natural next step for us. We want this expertise available to every founder we support from day one. Evgenia understands both the venture market and Israeli deep tech, and that combination is exactly what we need right now to grow further."

In her new capacity, Zaslavskaya will focus on strategic communications for VentureIsrael, aiming to enhance the visibility of the fund’s strategies, achievements, and expertise among investors, partners, and customers in key international markets, particularly in the US and the UK. Her initiatives will include positioning the fund in global markets, establishing relationships with business and tech media, elevating the public profiles of the partners, and crafting the news narrative surrounding VentureIsrael and its portfolio companies. Founders within the fund will also have access to similar expertise for their own technologies, teams, and growth trajectories.

Zaslavskaya expressed enthusiasm for her new role, stating, "Israel has a vibrant tech market with many products worth talking about, and I want to bring more of them to a global audience. Partnering with VentureIsrael—a firm I've worked with for many years, and one that has backed some of the country's most interesting deep-tech companies—is a natural place to do that."
