JYP Entertainment has achieved an extraordinary feat by ranking No. 1 in the world, as well as No. 1 in Korea for the second consecutive year, on TIME magazine’s list of the “World’s Best Companies in Sustainable Growth 2026.”
On the 12th (local time), weekly magazine TIME and German market analysis firm Statista officially announced the list of the World’s Best Companies in Sustainable Growth 2026. JYP received high evaluations in metrics such as growth rate, financial stability, and environmental impact, earning a score of 97.59. This marks not only the No. 1 spot in Korea but also the top ranking among all 500 companies worldwide, proving the company’s exceptional growth momentum.
Notably, JYP scored 93.66 points in last year’s TIME list, “World’s Best Companies in Sustainable Growth 2025,” ranking 1st in Korea and 3rd globally. By achieving the No. 1 global ranking this year, JYP has solidified its status as a leader in sustainable management for the second year in a row.
Statista commented, “The most evident point is that JYP performs exceptionally well across all evaluation categories. As with last year, JYP achieved outstanding results and the highest overall ranking,” adding, “Many companies excel in one area but fall short in others; however, JYP is one of the few companies that demonstrates excellence in both financial performance and environmental performance.”
This ranking selects 500 companies worldwide that maintain strong financial soundness while delivering exceptional results in the field of sustainable development. TIME and Statista determine the final scores (out of 100) by equally weighting factors such as revenue growth, financial stability, and environmental impact.
