Corporate Communications & Public Stance

No public evidence identified in the reviewed primary corporate records of a conflict-specific Atlassian public stance addressing Israeli military operations, Palestinian civilian protection, a ceasefire, or humanitarian assistance.

The reviewed UN and civil-society materials are document-scoped sources and do not establish Atlassian’s inclusion in the 2025 OHCHR settlement-business database update or in the UN Special Rapporteur’s 2025 report, From economy of occupation to economy of genocide 1, 2.

Operations in Occupied or Contested Territories

Atlassian’s official partner directory identifies Matrix DevOps of Herzliya, Israel, as a Platinum Solution Partner offering licensing, consulting, implementation, managed support, custom development, and training for Atlassian products 3.

This partner record verifies an Israeli commercial channel, but it does not identify customers in occupied territory or Israeli military or state-security customers 3.

An archived Israeli National Insurance Institute tender, T(8)/2019, concerns the supply of licences, maintenance, and implementation services for Atlassian products 4.

The available tender record evidences a civilian statutory-body procurement process, but does not identify an awardee, reseller, contract value, deployment locations, or any Israel Defense Forces or Ministry of Defense connection 4.

No public evidence identified in the reviewed corporate, partner-directory, UN, and OHCHR materials of an Atlassian office, subsidiary, reseller location, property, contract, or operational activity in West Bank, East Jerusalem, or Golan Heights settlements 5, 6, 7, 3, 1, 2.

Atlassian’s FY2025 subsidiary schedule does not list an Israel-incorporated subsidiary, although that filing-specific observation does not establish the absence of Israeli customers, personnel, contractors, resellers, intellectual-property rights, or other commercial activity 6.

Atlassian’s FY2026 annual report records an “Atlassian” trademark registration in Israel, which is intellectual-property evidence rather than evidence of a local operating entity or occupied-territory activity 5.

Internal Governance, Content & Retail Policies

No public evidence identified in the reviewed materials of region-specific Atlassian employee-speech discipline, product-content moderation, or settlement-origin retail or supply-chain policies 1, 2.

No public evidence identified in the reviewed materials of court, OECD National Contact Point, parliamentary, regulatory, or employee-speech matters tying Atlassian to Israel-Palestine 5, 1, 2.

The absence findings in this section are bounded by the reviewed source set and should not be read as an exhaustive search of all legal, regulatory, employment, or platform-policy records 5, 1, 2.

Brand Heritage & State Partnerships

Atlassian states that it was founded in Sydney in 2002 and identifies principal offices in Sydney and San Francisco 8.

The company describes itself as a global technology company offering team-collaboration software, cloud, data-center, and marketplace products, with a stated mission to “unleash the potential of every team” 5.

No public evidence identified in the reviewed corporate and partner materials that Atlassian markets itself through Israeli military heritage, defense-sector origins, state-security ties, or state-backed “Brand Israel” sponsorship 5, 7, 3.

No public evidence identified in the reviewed filings of a state-held golden share, state ownership, or a corporate mandate tied to Israeli geopolitical objectives 5, 6, 9.

Lobbying, Advocacy, Financing & Logistics

Atlassian’s FY23 Sustainability Report stated that it disclosed relevant lobbying activity and expenditure involving third-party consultants, including U.S. LD-1 and LD-2 filings, and that it did not then make political contributions to political parties in any country 10.

That representation is a 2023 corporate disclosure and was not independently confirmed as an ongoing policy in the reviewed materials 10.

A July 2025 Federal Election Commission filing lists Atlassian as a payee in a Democratic Party Committee Abroad disbursement schedule, but does not identify Atlassian as a donor, political-action committee, lobbyist, or contributor 11.

No public evidence identified in the reviewed materials of Atlassian corporate financing, free-service deployment, logistics, infrastructure provision, political-action-committee activity, regional-policy lobbying, or asset mobilisation for Israeli military, settlement, or state-aligned conflict efforts 4, 1, 2, 10, 11.

Corporate Structure & Primary Mission

Atlassian Corporation is a Delaware corporation with principal executive offices in San Francisco, and its Class A common stock trades on Nasdaq under the ticker TEAM 5.

The current Delaware parent was incorporated in September 2022, following Atlassian Corporation plc, an England-and-Wales-incorporated parent that operated from November 2013 to September 2022 8.

Atlassian Corporation is a holding company that conducts substantially all business through subsidiaries, all of which were reported as wholly owned as of 30 June 2025 6.

The FY2025 subsidiary schedule lists entities incorporated across Australia, Canada, France, Germany, India, Japan, the Netherlands, New Zealand, the Philippines, Poland, Portugal, Singapore, Spain, South Korea, Türkiye, the United Kingdom, and the United States 6.

The reviewed filing describes commercial software operations and does not identify an Israel-specific corporate mission, geopolitical mandate, state-held ownership interest, or golden-share arrangement 5.

Executive & Leadership Footprint

As of 30 September 2025, co-founders Michael Cannon-Brookes and Scott Farquhar each beneficially held 48,024,933 Class B shares, representing 42.59% of total voting power each 9.

Class B shares carry ten votes each, and the founders’ combined holdings accounted for all Class B shares held by the company’s directors and executive officers as a group in the 2025 proxy disclosure 9.

The FY2026 annual report identifies Cannon-Brookes as CEO and James Chuong as CFO, and reports that the former President, CFO, and CTO stepped down from their executive-officer roles during FY2026 5.

The October 2025 proxy nominated Scott Belsky, Shona L. Brown, Michael Cannon-Brookes, Karen Dykstra, Scott Farquhar, Sasan Goodarzi, Christian Smith, Steven Sordello, Jason Warner, Richard P. Wong, and Michelle Zatlyn to the board 9.

The proxy stated that Cannon-Brookes and Farquhar were the only non-independent nominees under Nasdaq standards 9.

No public evidence identified in the reviewed materials of founder- or director-linked Israeli military, settlement, political-finance, investment, charitable, or advocacy relationships, but the available searches did not complete comprehensive electoral-disclosure, charity-register, foundation, or tax-filing review 9, 12.
