Yanolja, a global travel technology company led by CEO Sujin Lee, has been named one of Korea's Top 50 brands in Interbrand's Best Korea Brands 2026.

Since 2013, Interbrand has evaluated and recognized Korea's leading brands based on their competitiveness and growth potential. Yanolja was recognized for its technology-driven approach to connecting the global travel industry through Vertical AI and data, as well as its customer-centric platform capabilities, further validating its brand value as a global travel technology company.

The recognition reflects the impact of Yanolja's large-scale global rebranding initiative launched last year. Through the initiative, Yanolja has strengthened and unified brand identity across the Enterprise Solutions Division while accelerating its transformation into a global technology company. Today, Yanolja Enterprise Solutions Division provides AI- and data-powered solutions to travel businesses worldwide, building a global travel data infrastructure and leading the digital transformation of the travel industry.

NOL UNIVERSE, Yanolja Consumer Platform Division, continues to expand customer engagement through its differentiated brand competitiveness. Through NOL, an integrated platform spanning travel, leisure, and culture, and NOL World, a dedicated global inbound travel service, NOL UNIVERSE delivers a consistent brand experience to customers both in Korea and around the world. By offering personalized services and differentiated customer experiences, the company is responding to evolving travel demand while helping expand the value of K-travel in global markets.

Celebrating its 21st anniversary this year, Yanolja plans to further strengthen its global travel technology brand competitiveness by accelerating the advancement of AI solutions under the Yanolja 3.0 vision announced earlier this year. Guided by the core values of Customer, Technology, and One Team, Yanolja aims to further solidify its leadership in travel technology by combining proprietary global travel data with advanced AI capabilities.

A Yanolja representative said, “Being named to Best Korea Brands 2026 reflects recognition of Yanolja's differentiated brand value in global markets, built through continuous technology innovation and long-term investment in branding. Moving forward, we will continue to strengthen our AI capabilities under Yanolja 3.0 and establish Yanolja as a top-tier global travel technology brand delivering innovative digital experiences to travelers and travel businesses worldwide.”
