Environmental and Energy Management System Certification

In August 2022, NHN achieved certifications for environmental management system (ISO 14001) and energy management system (ISO 50001) at the same time for our Pangyo headquarters, Play Museum, and NHN Cloud Center (NCC). NHN has implemented a comprehensive approach to eco-friendly management by integrating environmental and energy management systems complying with the global standards throughout corporate activities. Obtaining these certifications, NHN is actively contributing to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) established by the United Nations by pursuing 13 goals from the 17 goals presented in the areas of people, planet, and prosperity.

*The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) refer to a set of 17 policy goals unanimously agreed upon by the global community during the UN General Assembly in September 2015. These goals aim to be collectively achieved by 2030 for the sustainable development of humanity across various dimensions.
