aMoon Partners, an Israeli life-sciences venture-capital firm backed by billionaire Marius Nacht, has raised the first $200 million for a new fund.

A number of private investors participated in the first closing of aMoon II, which will bankroll mid- to late-stage health-tech startups, said Yair Schindel, the managing partner and co-founder of aMoon with Nacht. Several “very large institutions” are considering investing in the fund, whose target is $500 million, he said.
