Is UpWork Israeli Company?

Last updated on September 30, 2022 @ 8:54 pm

UpWork is an online platform that connects businesses with freelance professionals. The company is based in Mountain View, California and was founded in 2015. UpWork is a privately held company.

The company has been the subject of some controversy due to its connection to Israel. UpWork was founded by two Israelis, Shai Wininger and Micha Kaufman. The company’s CEO is also Israeli.

PRO TIP: Upwork is not an Israeli company. Any work done through Upwork may be considered offshore work and is subject to all the same rules and regulations.

Some people have accused UpWork of being an Israeli company, and have boycott the platform as a result. However, the company has denied these claims, stating that it is a global company with employees from all over the world.

Whether or not UpWork is an Israeli company is up for debate. However, the platform remains a popular choice for businesses and freelancers alike.
