(haipo) – The Haifa-based digital company joins TikTok's international partner directory and establishes its position as one of the leading marketing companies in Israel.
It used to be thought that international achievements were born only in the center of the country. Today it is clear that reality is changing: exciting news for the digital industry in Israel comes from Haifa. Laos Media and Interactive, which employs about 100 people in the city, became the first and only marketing agency in Israel to receive official recognition within the framework of TikTok's international partner program, an unprecedented achievement that places Haifa on the global innovation map.
An international achievement born in Haifa
Laos Media and Interactive, owned by Tomer Levinsky and Tal Hoffman, received the status TikTok Marketing Partner In the category Agency – A category designed for professional marketing agencies with proven expertise in digital advertising. Following the recognition, the company is already listed in TikTok’s official partner directory alongside leading international agencies.
The company operates a central headquarters in an area of approximately 600 square meters in Haifa, and employs approximately 100 professionals in the fields of marketing, media, development, creative, and content. Over the course of more than 15 years of operation, Laos has transformed from a local entity into a national digital company that provides services to leading brands in Israel, from website promotion and sponsored advertising to systems development, video productions, and AI-based marketing solutions.
No longer a “TikTok advertising agency” – but an official partner
The TikTok Partner Program is not open to any agency running campaigns on the platform. Recognition is only given to companies that demonstrate:
- Proven professional expertise
- Many years of experience
- Advanced technological capabilities
- Significant results for customers
For Laos Media, this is an international seal of quality that places it on a par with leading agencies in the world.
“This is, first and foremost, Haifa pride”
Tomer Levinsky, Co-CEO of Laos Media & Interactive, explains: “We started our journey in Haifa, grew here and became one of the leading digital marketing companies in Israel. The fact that an agency from Haifa is the first in Israel to receive official recognition from TikTok proves that it is possible to build companies in the north that achieve international achievements.”
“This achievement belongs to our employees”
Tal Hoffman, Co-CEO, adds: “Behind the recognition are excellent professionals, many of whom are residents of Haifa and the surrounding area. For years, we have invested in building professional teams and expanding our activities in the north. The international recognition is an achievement of the high-quality human capital in the region.”
From Haifa – to the whole world
The recognition from TikTok joins a string of international achievements by the company, including winning three awards of excellence in the framework of TechBehemoths Global Excellence Awards 2025 In the fields of SEO, PPC and WordPress development.
The story of Laos Media demonstrates how companies operating outside the center of the country can achieve international success, while maintaining local roots, creating quality jobs, and leading digital innovation from the north.
