Message from our CEO & Co-founder
Change is more than making progress. It’s a commitment.
I’m proud to present our 2023 Diversity and Inclusion Report, which encapsulates our ongoing commitment to cultivating a workplace that thrives on diversity in all its forms.
At AppsFlyer, we firmly believe that fostering a diverse and inclusive environment is not just the right thing to do, but also a strategic choice driving innovation, decision-making, and strengthening our competitive edge. Our greatest asset is our people, and embracing diversity unlocks a wealth of perspectives, experiences, and talents that propel us forward.
This report serves as both a celebration of the progress we’ve made and a call to action for continuous improvement. It reflects our commitment to transparency, as we highlight the initiatives, policies, and practices that have contributed to a more inclusive workplace while shining a light on the areas where we need to do better, as there is always room for improvement.
I am extremely proud of the work that our People and AppsFlyer Cares team have put in over the last year to listen, learn and implement data-driven decisions that have led to successful and positive change in our business, processes, and culture.
Our vision of creating a better, safer digital experience starts with creating a better, safer working environment. That is my commitment to our team and to our ecosystem.

DEI&B journey
I am thrilled to announce the release of our second annual Global Gender Diversity Report. This report highlights the strides we have made and the challenges we continue to address in promoting gender diversity at AppsFlyer.

As we embrace this conviction, our commitment to achieving gender equity remains resolute. We understand that a diverse and inclusive workforce fuels creativity, fosters different perspectives, and empowers individuals to bring their whole selves to work. It is within this context that our second annual Global Gender Diversity Report takes center stage.

At AppsFlyer, ensuring the safety and well-being of children online is of utmost importance. With a staggering one-third of internet users being children, we recognize the critical responsibility we hold to safeguard children, our most vulnerable resources.
