Global MAKE 2007

Teleos and the KNOW Network have announced the winners for their Global Most Admired Knowledge Enterprises study.  I may be imagining it, but the list has shifted heavily to include a large number of IT-centric companies in the top 20.  When I started following this study, it seemed there were more non-tech businesses.  But maybe that's my imagination. 

Here are the top 20 in alphabetical order.

• Accenture (Global)
• Apple (United States)
• BP (United Kingdom)
• British Broadcasting Corporation (United Kingdom)
• Ernst & Young (Global)
• Fluor (United States)
• General Electric (United States)
• Google (United States)
• IBM (United States)
• Infosys Technologies (India)
• Intel (United States)
• McKinsey & Company (Global)
• Microsoft (United States)
• Nokia (Finland)
• Royal Dutch Shell (The Netherlands/United Kingdom)
• Samsung Group (S. Korea)
• 3M (United States)
