This Signal Highlight is a breaking update covering startup and enterprise movements driving disruption across industries.

DualBird, an Israeli startup, raised $17 million in Series A funding led by Lightspeed Venture Partners with participation from Bessemer Venture Partners, Uncork Capital, and Angular Ventures.

The company, founded by Gilad Tal, Amir Gilad, Ehud Eliaz, and Ohad Gamliel, previously raised $8 million in Seed funding.

Its cloud-native engine delivers hardware-grade acceleration without major infrastructure changes, promising performance gains of up to 100x while cutting costs by as much as 90%.

DualBird’s timing aligns with enterprise demand surging amid AI-driven data growth.
