This prestigious title recognizes individuals who have made significant impact on the world, and Musk certainly fits the bill. As the CEO of Tesla, SpaceX, Neuralink, and X (formerly Twitter), Musk has redefined the boundaries of innovation.
His groundbreaking achievements in electric vehicles and space exploration have transformed entire industries. Tesla’s success has pushed the global auto industry toward a sustainable future. Meanwhile, SpaceX has made reusable rockets a reality and opened the door for commercial space travel.

While Musk’s actions often spark debate, there is no denying his global influence. He has become a symbol of ambition and disruption in the 21st century. Critics argue that his behavior on X has been controversial, but supporters see him as a champion of free speech.
The magazine noted that Musk’s efforts are reshaping how humans live, travel, and communicate. His vision of colonizing Mars reflects a long-term goal of preserving humanity.
TIME’s editor-in-chief described Musk as a “rare force of change who is challenging conventions and rewriting the future.” The recognition has sparked global conversation about leadership, innovation, and responsibility.
Musk responded to the news on X, thanking his teams and saying, “This is about the people behind the scenes making the impossible possible.” As 2025 continues to unfold, all eyes remain on Musk to see what he’ll do next.
