"World’s Most Sustainable Companies of 2025" ranks the top 500 companies from among the world’s most influential 5,000+ global corporations, based on over 20 key metrics. These criteria include revenue, market capitalization, brand recognition, ESG commitments, ratings, quality of disclosures, and performance on environmental and social responsibility indicators. The selected companies come from over 30 countries.

NEC became a signatory to the United Nations Global Compact in 2005, which was founded on the basic principles of human rights, labor, environment and anti-corruption, and seeks to minimize the burdens that business activities may have on society. NEC aims to contribute to the creation of value for society through its business, and to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) launched by the United Nations. NEC is committed to ensuring transparency in its disclosures in accordance with international standards, and the company has received high ratings in evaluations by third parties such as CDP and S&P Global Sustainability Yearbook. We believe that these ongoing efforts have contributed to our achieving high ratings for the second consecutive year.

NEC also aims to create the social values of safety, security, fairness and efficiency to promote a more sustainable world where everyone has the chance to reach their full potential. Based on the NEC Way, a common set of values that form the basis for how the entire NEC Group conducts itself, NEC contributes to achieving the SDGs.
