We have learned that Apple reached the sixth place in the list created by Thomson Reuters, which has become known as the 100 leading technology companies globally. The purpose of this list is to identify and congratulate the most successful organizations from an operational and financial point of view, with success in the technology industry. Ahead of Apple, we find companies of such prestige as: Microsoft, Intel, Cisco, IBM or Alphabet.
Right behind Apple we find the following companies: Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, SAP, Texas Instruments, and Accenture.
Thomson Reuters released the criteria used in the elaboration of the list: uses an algorithm of 28 patterns, which enables:
Objectively identify organizations with the strength for the future, in today's complex business environment.
The areas that were analyzed in the study encompass practically all the functions of a company. Specifically In this study, the following areas were evaluated: financial, management and investor confidence, risk and resistance, legal compliance, innovation, people and social responsibility, environmental impact and reputation.. According to Alex Paladino:
Tech companies operate at breakneck speed in the face of competitive, regulatory, legal, financial, supply chain challenges, and a peek at other businesses. Their financial success often overshadows their operational integrity, making it difficult to identify those organizations with true longevity for the future. "
Mr. Paladino is the global CEO of the Thomson Reuters Group. He also added:
With the Top 100 Global Tech Leaders, we have identified the points that embody the leadership of the technology industry in the XNUMXst century.
But in addition to the conclusions of the study, we found other highly important valued parameters. For example, the number of patents presented by each company over a year, with a view to the innovation they bring. The number of news published on topics related to innovation. Or the number of litigation.
Those who made the list did not publish the partial score in each of the areas. But in any case, a list that encompasses so many parameters and especially those related to innovation is appreciated.
