Vetted

Vetted is an education, acceleration and investment platform for U.S. and Israeli combat veterans moving from military service into company building. Its investment arm, Vetted Fund, makes early-stage investments in veteran-founded companies and remains involved as they grow. Sector interests span defense and national security, public safety, AI, healthcare, fintech and enterprise software.

The platform combines two founder development programmes with the fund. Alpha-Bet is an online entrepreneurship school in which aspiring veteran founders work through venture creation with hands-on learning and mentorship. The Accelerator Program runs for 10 weeks, pairing startup training, one-on-one guidance and founder development with access to capital; it includes in-person phases in Tel Aviv and Miami alongside an online mentorship phase.

Programme design is mentorship-led and experiential, and the model is explicitly cross-border, bridging the U.S. and Israeli innovation ecosystems. Alumni retain access to a continuing community of mentors, investors, workshops and networking events, and Vetted's involvement with portfolio companies extends beyond the point of investment.
