An Edmonton-based business has been named among the world’s most sustainable companies, with Stantec ranking at the top in Canada.

The honour comes as part of a list compiled by Time Magazine, in partnership with Statista.

Time ranked the 500 most sustainable companies in the world “based on their public commitment to and progress toward sustainability targets” for 2025.

“Many companies that ranked high on the list provide mostly digital services, like banking, consulting, communications, and research, or they supply renewable energy to others,” Time Magazine says.
