It’s hard to be an early stage startup. On one hand, VCs ask you to show traction and on the other hand, you need money to get traction. And even if you get some ‘traction’ it expires pretty quickly.

A VC jokingly said that if Techcrunch was the only tech blog he ever read, he would probably think that startups magically evaporate into the ether after they raise a seed or A round. You hear about them when they raise money, and then the news comes far and apart.

The Israel Innovation Road Trip, is an effort to raise both funding and awareness. Organized by Bootcamp Ventures, a small advisory firm for startups, fifteen Israeli startups will pitch their ventures to an audience of investors in Boston and New York. This is the firm’s first U.S. event, following 14 similar ones in Israel, Turkey and Europe. In an interview the Boston Herald, Road Trip organizer Esther Loewy: “No one expects to walk out with a check, but it initiates meaningful conversation, which usually results in follow-up”.

Check out the 15 Israeli startups looking for funding after the jump.
