Each year, The Boston Consulting Group (BCG) and BusinessWeek ask senior executives of the 1,500 largest public corporations to nominate their candidates for the world’s most innovative companies. We also assess the executives’ thinking on the best practices, benchmarks, and key challenges of innovation. The findings become a key part of a widely-read report that BusinessWeek publishes in its magazine and on its Web site.
