Other tech firms in the top 20 included Microsoft, IBM, Apple, Nokia.,Vodafone and HP.
Why China Mobile? The company has more subscribers than the U.S. has people (nearly 400 million). Authoring firm Millward Brown noted that Chinese firms performed strongly this year, aided by continued growth in emerging markets.
