Why do these scores change?

Unlike static boycott lists, our targeting model is dynamic. This company's position on the matrix is re-evaluated continually as we verify new contracts, divestments, or policy changes. Your reporting directly impacts this score.

Ceragon Networks represents a B2B infrastructure target as an Israeli-headquartered wireless networking company directly contributing to the Israeli economy through corporate tax revenue, technology development, and employment in Tel Aviv. As a NASDAQ-listed company serving critical infrastructure sectors including utilities, government agencies, and energy companies, Ceragon creates procurement pressure opportunities through its global client base.

Key Leverage Points

  • Israeli Headquarters: All corporate profits and tax revenue flow directly to the Israeli economy, making this a clear divestment target
  • NASDAQ Listing: Public trading exposes company to institutional investor pressure and ESG screening processes
  • Critical Infrastructure Clients: Government and utility clients are subject to ethical procurement policies and public accountability
  • B2B Procurement Decisions: Enterprise clients (utilities, telcos) have alternative suppliers available from European and Asian manufacturers

Evidence Summary

Ceragon Networks was founded in Tel Aviv in 1996 and maintains its global headquarters in Israel. The company serves over 600 service providers and 1,600 private network owners globally, including utilities, government agencies, and energy companies. As a NASDAQ-listed company (CRNT), financial information is publicly available, demonstrating the direct economic contribution to Israel. The company's products (IP-20, IP-50 series) provide wireless backhaul solutions with capacities up to 20 Gbit/s for critical infrastructure.

Engagement Strategy

Focus on two primary approaches: institutional investor divestment and client procurement pressure. Target NASDAQ institutional shareholders with divestment calls emphasising direct economic contribution to the Israeli economy. Engage utility companies, government procurement offices, and telecommunications operators to review supplier relationships for human rights compliance. Emphasise availability of established European alternatives (Ericsson, Nokia) that offer equivalent or superior technology without Israeli headquarters. Frame procurement decisions in terms of ESG compliance, supply chain risk, and ethical sourcing requirements.
