In this list, we only focus on brands or brands that are in the technology or media sector or category. So even though Amazon is ranked first, it still won't count because Amazon is in the Retail sector competing with Walmart and other supermarkets.
This ranking is arranged based on the valuation value obtained by each brand that has conducted an IPO or is trading on the stock market. So if there is a company that has a high valuation value but has not yet done an IPO then it will not be included in this list.
