Filed under: Tech companies · Companies that support Israel
Background
Verint Systems is an Israeli-rooted, US-registered company: it grew out of Comverse Technology, was led since 1994 by Israeli-born CEO Dan Bodner, and historically ran large R&D operations in Herzliya. In February 2021 Verint spun off its intelligence and cyber business into Cognyte Software Ltd., a separate Israeli-registered, Nasdaq-listed company — surveillance-related claims about 'Verint' today usually concern Cognyte's business, and the two should not be conflated. Post-spinoff Verint focuses on customer-experience software and kept about 200 Israel-based employees, mostly R&D. In November 2025 private-equity firm Thoma Bravo completed a roughly $2 billion take-private of Verint and merged it with its portfolio company Calabrio; Bodner moved to an advisory role.

Timeline of documented support
Documented support
| Type | Date | Amount | Recipient | Sources |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Employee donation match | 2023-10 | — | Hamaniyot (Sunflowers) Association, Israel — towards a new centre in Ofakim A few days after 7 October 2023 Verint launched a donation drive among its employees worldwide and matched what they gave one-for-one; the combined sum went to Hamaniyot (“Sunflowers”), the Israeli association for children who lost a parent, towards establishing a new centre in the southern town of Ofakim. The account is Verint's own — Rotem Tsur, who is responsible for employee experience and social responsibility at the company, gave it in a Calcalist supplement produced with duns 100 and published on 31 October 2024 — and no figure was disclosed. Hamaniyot lists Verint Systems among the partners on its own site. In the same interview Verint said its Israeli staff held group volunteering days at least once a fortnight, for families evacuated from their homes and for farmers and to ready public shelters in high-risk towns, and that it later hosted the association's children at a Purim event and at a music event in July. | |
| Sponsorship | 2024 | — | Eitan — Everybody Can, Israeli non-profit for people with special needs (its annual Eitan RUN race) Verint sponsors the annual Eitan RUN charity race of the Israeli association “Eitan — Everybody Can”, which runs fitness training for people with special needs, and its staff take part in the race. Rotem Tsur, who is responsible for employee experience and social responsibility at Verint, said in the Calcalist supplement of 31 October 2024 that this was the second consecutive year of the sponsorship and that it began with a Verint employee who is active in the association and brought it to management. No amount was disclosed, and the claim rests on Verint's own account: the association's own site, as fetched in September 2026, names no sponsors. | |
| Operations in Israel | 2025-07 | — | Verint R&D operations in Israel (Israeli subsidiary Verint Systems Ltd.) Verint has Israeli roots — it began in 1994 as a unit of Comverse, the Israeli-founded tech group, and long ran major R&D in Herzliya — and it still maintains an Israeli engineering presence: as of mid-2025 about 200 of its 3,800 employees (roughly 5%) worked in Israel, mostly in R&D, through its Israeli subsidiary Verint Systems Ltd., which appears in the company's SEC subsidiary exhibits. Most of Verint's historic Israeli operations moved to Cognyte Software when the intelligence business was spun off in February 2021. |
