If you had to guess which companies were the most innovative in the world, what names would you come up with?
For me I think of Amazon.com, Google, maybe Apple. So I found it interesting how few names on the new Forbes Top 25 Most Innovative Companies Of The Year I had even heard of. Here’s there top ten:
- Salesforce.com

- Regeneron Pharmaceuticals
- ARM Holdings
- Baidu
- Amazon.com
- Intuitive Surgical
- Rakuten
