Apple Ranks as 'World's Most Admired Company' for 18th Consecutive Year [Chart]

Posted January 30, 2025 at 4:13pm by iClarified
Apple has topped Fortune's lists of the 'World's Most Admired Companies' for the eighteenth straight year.

To select the top 50, Fortune, in partnership with Korn Ferry, asked 3380 directors and securities analysts to select the 10 companies they admired most. They chose from a list made up of the companies that ranked in the top 25% in last year's surveys, plus those that finished in the top 20% of their industry. Anyone could vote for any company in any industry.

Apple, Microsoft, and Amazon topped the rankings for 2025, just as they did in 2024. Nvidia jumped into the top five, rising to fourth place from tenth. Berkshire Hathaway dropped to fifth place, down from fourth last year.


Leaders in all industries rely more than ever on Big Tech. And as we've learned from the 27th edition of the Fortune World's Most Admired Companies All-Stars list, those leaders really appreciate the giants that deliver goods and services reliably, at scale, and without drama. For a stunning 18th straight year, Apple finished first in our annual ranking of corporate reputation, based on a poll of 3,380 executives, directors, and analysts; for the sixth year in a row, Amazon and Microsoft rounded out the top three. Nvidia, whose GPU chips are fueling the generative AI explosion, rose six spots to No. 4 as its influence continued to grow. Elsewhere, cloud software provider ServiceNow (No. 42), global chip giant Taiwan Semiconductor (No. 45), and weight-loss drug pioneer Novo Nordisk (No. 46) became first-time All-Stars.

Sometimes I come across posts like these and I can't think of anything less true than this. Apple the most ''admired''? Really? It makes absolutely no sense whatsoever since they really don't make anything for their products and if they do is very little. Cameras, processors, lenses, screens are in their majority Samsung. If not, LG. Very uncreative, uninventive designs, technology and more. When they want to come out with something new Samsung has had it for over 5 years at its minimum. People has praised Apple's company and name for a long time thinking that it gives them status when there are way better phones out there and not talking about Samsung phones but there are way better phones with better technology way ahead of Apple's time.
