Investment Firm to Speak on its Growing Portfolio in Israeli Technology Companies


SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif., Feb. 23, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Taylor Frigon Capital Management, an investment management firm headquartered in San Luis Obispo, CA, will be hosting a webinar on March 19th at 11am PST to discuss its portfolio in what's been called the "New Silicon Valley," Israel's technology boom.

Taylor Frigon currently has seven investments in Israel. The roster has public and private companies, including ASOCS Limited, a developer of virtual base stations that aims to reduce the cost for carriers to run cell towers. Taylor Frigon is the largest private investor in ASOCS. It also owns shares of EZchip Semiconductor Ltd., which is traded on both the Nasdaq and the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange. EZchip, a $629 million market capitalization provider of Ethernet network processes, is the largest holding in Taylor Frigon's public Core Growth portfolio.

"Investing in Israeli businesses is part of a globally diversified approach," says Gerry Frigon, president and chief investment officer of the California-based investment management firm "We don't care where in the world it is, as long as it's great technology and fits in our portfolio. Our focus on Israel is a component of a broader strategy, and it happens to be an important component, because we think this is where we'll see some of our most significant returns."



"The geopolitical side of it" doesn't worry him much, as it's "a risk no matter where in the world you are investing," he says. "That being the case, we're appropriately concerned about business risk. We conduct due diligence for Israeli companies the same way as we would any other investment."

Taylor Frigon has recently tapped Jonathan Wornick to help lead the Israel-oriented investments. Wornick, who oversees client relationships in Northern California for the firm, also serves as the regional campaign chair of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.
