Insights from Deloitte on Ranking Trends
Wolfe Tone, a partner at Deloitte Tax LLP and leader of the US Deloitte Private & Emerging Client Portfolio, shared insights about the broader trends highlighted by this year’s rankings. He noted, "This year’s results underscore both sustained leadership and breakthrough momentum among companies. More than half of this year’s winners have been recognized before, while the top ten includes many first-time entrants.
