Venture capital can not only promote technological innovation and the development of high-tech industries, but also make contribution to economic growth. Having a good reputation as the - "Silicon Valley in Middle East", Israel is one of the most successful countries in developing venture capital.

We take Israel for example to establish economic growth model with venture capital which is taken as an endogenous variable in this paper. The results show that venture capital plays a significant role in the country’s economic growth.
