The Fortune Global 500 is an annual classification of the world's largest corporations ranked by revenue. Public and private companies can qualify, and being recognized as a Fortune Global 500 company is considered a badge of honor. For businesses, making it onto this list is a testament to their financial success and industry dominance. And for channel partners, it's a valuable resource for identifying potential opportunities and assessing market trends.
This year's top 10 changed little from last year's—but further down the list, global tech companies made dramatic leaps. Lenovo has climbed 52 spots to No. 196 on the Fortune Global 500 list, marking its 16th year on the roster and its best-ever ranking in the Technology sector (No. 13). This milestone reflects a robust fiscal year 2024/25 performance, with revenue up 21 percent year-over-year (YoY) to $69.07 billion and net income up 36 percent to $1.4 billion.
For Lenovo's partners, the message is clear: Lenovo's momentum creates more opportunities to couple cutting-edge solutions with channel-driven value.
Innovation and Operational Excellence Strengthens Competitiveness
Lenovo attributes its remarkable growth to a diversified strategy that blends end-to-end global operations, an ODM+ manufacturing model, and a resilient global resources/local delivery approach. After operating an international business for two decades, Lenovo maintains over 30 manufacturing sites across 11 markets. That footprint, paired with a flexible supply chain, enables Lenovo to adapt quickly to market shifts while maintaining reliable delivery to partners and customers alike. For channel partners, this translates into more compelling proposals, faster time-to-value, and a stronger ability to meet customer demands in a dynamic environment.
R&D remains a core driver of Lenovo’s forward motion. R&D investments rose 13 percent YoY to $2.3 billion, fueling milestones in the company’s hybrid AI strategy. For Lenovo channel partners, this signifies ongoing investment in transformative capabilities, ranging from intelligent infrastructure to AI-infused solutions that enable customers to modernize their workloads and accelerate innovation. The result is a portfolio that can be tailored to diverse industry needs while maintaining scale and support through Lenovo's global network.
