True Global Ventures Strengthens US Presence with Tal Elyashiv

San Francisco, May 29, 2026 - True Global Ventures (TGV), a global venture capital firm renowned for investing in visionary founders, has announced the appointment of Tal Elyashiv as General Partner. This strategic move is aimed at bolstering TGV's operations in the United States, particularly in the thriving Bay Area technology ecosystem.

Elyashiv brings a wealth of experience from his extensive career, which includes pivotal roles across Silicon Valley, Wall Street, and Tel Aviv. His unique combination of expertise spans venture capital investing, operations, and financial leadership. Tal is set to relocate to the US later this year, further solidifying TGV’s foothold in the San Francisco region that is pivotal for tech innovation.

Heralded as a prominent figure in the field, Elyashiv co-founded SPiCE VC, the world’s first fully tokenized venture capital fund. Under his leadership, SPiCE VC has emerged as a high-performing investment vehicle, boasting significant returns on paid-in capital and eclipsing industry benchmarks. That’s not all; he will continue to guide SPiCE VC as it navigates the final stages of its investment cycle, ensuring no conflict of interest arises with his new role at TGV.

In addition to his duties at SPiCE VC, Elyashiv has also co-founded Securitize, recognized as a leading platform for real-world asset tokenization. His notable publications, including Blockchain Prophecies and Investing in Revolutions, demonstrate his influence as a thought leader on the intersection of AI, blockchain, and quantum computing.

Elyashiv's previous positions include senior executive roles at Capital One and Bank of America, as well as leading major operational revamps at BondDesk Group. His multifaceted career has equipped him with a distinctive perspective on managing funds, which aligns perfectly with TGV’s strategic focus on AI-driven commercial applications through its TGV Fund 6. This fund emphasizes late-stage seed and Series A investments, highlighting startups primarily located in California.

Dušan Stojanović, managing partner at TGV, expressed enthusiasm over Elyashiv's appointment: “Tal offers the fund management experience that we vigorously seek at TGV. He not only has a track record of building businesses and leading institutions but has also invested resolutely across various technology cycles. With his American and Israeli roots, he brings a truly global outlook that meshes seamlessly with TGV's objectives for the Bay Area.”

Elyashiv shares this excitement, adding, “TGV has cultivated something rare—a genuinely global fund that possesses the network, portfolio, and conviction to support founders at critical growth stages. I am eager to contribute to the success of the TGV team and to tap into the transformative investment themes of AI and blockchain.”

Beatrice Lion, another general partner at TGV, commented on Elyashiv’s exceptional track record: “Tal is not just another investor; he has constructed and invested in leading-edge sectors. His extensive expertise and hands-on execution will serve as invaluable assets for TGV and our portfolio companies as they scale.”
