Is the Outsourcing Industry Entering the “Iranian-Israeli” Conflict Zone?
A sense of deep concern and anticipation grips officials at outsourcing companies in Egypt, fearing that a prolonged conflict between Tehran and Tel Aviv could somehow affect the industry.
Foreign investments in this sector consistently seek political stability and an environment conducive to expansion and capital injection.
This week, the “Outsourcing Bulletin” tracked a series of indicators and statistics on the size of the outsourcing services industry in Iran and Israel, along with a list of the most prominent companies operating in both countries.
Iran’s Outsourcing Landscape
According to research reports published by Statista and GoodFirms, the revenue of the outsourcing services industry in Iran is expected to reach $1.9 billion by the end of this year, rising to $2.5 billion by 2030, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.9%. Notably, the average expenditure per employee in the business process outsourcing (BPO) market in 2025 is projected to be $63.75.
Despite economic sanctions, Iran’s IT outsourcing industry has witnessed significant growth, supported by a highly skilled workforce and cost advantages.
The list of the top 10 most famous outsourcing companies in Iran includes: Anjam Midam, Eniac Tech, KIASYS, PSD Consulting Services, PersianGig.com, Sadad Informatic Corporation, Safir Abi Aram, ParsCoders, PodroCo, and Problem Open Innovation Platform.
Israel’s Outsourcing Landscape
Meanwhile, forecasts indicate that the revenue of the outsourcing services industry in Tel Aviv will reach $1.9 billion by the end of the current year, compared to $2.4 billion by 2029, with a CAGR of 5%. The average expenditure per employee within this industry is expected to be around $448.25 by late 2025.
Israel’s thriving startup ecosystem and skilled workforce play a significant role in making Tel Aviv an investment destination for outsourcing services.
Among its most famous outsourcing providers are: Aidey, Peoplr, ZDH, Marketing Envy, Reach, Aspire, Bynet Semech, SkyLimit, IDI Ventures, and CAIC Outsourced.
The data highlights the significant size and growth potential of the outsourcing markets in both Iran and Israel. The question remains whether the ongoing geopolitical tensions will directly impact these industries, or if their remote service delivery models offer a buffer against conflict.
