Teams Sparta said it posted a 220% increase in contract value in its corporate AI training business in the first half of 2026 from a year earlier. During the same period, revenue rose 166%, and the number of new corporate clients increased 156%.
Adoption by large conglomerates also expanded. Nine of South Korea's top 10 conglomerates have adopted Teams Sparta's training programs, and the repeat adoption rate among existing clients came in at about 90%. Corporate inquiries also rose 80% from a year earlier, the company said.
Teams Sparta said its training operations did not stop at one-off sessions. The programs expanded into advanced courses and links with on-the-job projects, generating recurring revenue, it said.
Against this backdrop, the company said its client portfolio also became more diversified. It cited POSCO, LG Household & Health Care, Nongshim, DB, Korea Investment & Securities, Kakao Pay and Cosmax as client examples, and said its customer industries expanded across finance, semiconductors, manufacturing and consumer goods.
Teams Sparta is using customized design based on its in-house AI capability assessment solution, AXPI (AX Performance Index), as a key driver of its results. Before training, the company quantitatively assesses employees' AI usage levels, then uses that to derive optimized curricula by job function and links the training directly to projects that solve real work tasks. The cumulative number of people assessed through AXPI stands at about 30,000.
The company said it is also accumulating cases in which assessments are followed by subsequent projects. More than 80% of companies assessed are now pursuing follow-up projects after recognizing the need for prior diagnostics. One large manufacturing conglomerate launched projects by four job categories — management, sales, R&D and production — after an enterprise-wide assessment, while another company designed job-specific training based on data from about 1,800 employees and rolled it out across all affiliates.
Looking ahead, Teams Sparta plans to further refine its End-to-End business model of 'assessment → customized training → on-the-job projects → AX solutions build.' To that end, it plans to pursue the actual implementation of the practical tasks identified during training and expand investment in Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) talent and technology infrastructure.
Teams Sparta has launched AX Partners, a new integrated B2B service platform that bundles AX support for enterprises. Through AX Partners, corporate clients can review and adopt the full process of assessment, training and solutions build in one stop.
Teams Sparta CEO Lee Beom-gyu said corporate AI training contracts grew more than threefold and the repeat adoption rate also reached about 90%, adding that this proved systematic AX support translates into real business impact. He said the company plans to start with AXPI and connect customized training, on-the-job projects and solutions build, and that its goal is to establish itself as a leading partner for creating corporate AX results through AX Partners.
