宏盟集团旗下企业形象及品牌顾问公司Interbrand发布的最新年度报告显示，苹果已超过可口可乐，成为今年全球最具价值的品牌。第四至第十名分别是：IBM、微软、美国通用电气公司、麦当劳、三星、英特尔、丰田。Interbrand自2000年以来一直编制“最佳全球品牌”报告。去年排名第1的可口可乐今年下降至第3，这是可口可乐首次失去全球排名第1的地位。Interbrand对品牌价值的计算基于财务业绩等多种指标。
Interbrand全球CEO杰兹·弗拉普顿(Jez Freampton)表示，苹果成为全球排名第1的品牌只是“时间问题”。苹果去年排名第2，高于2011年时的第8。Interbrand在今年的报告中称：“很多时候，一家公司改变我们的生活不仅是由于其产品，也是由于其精神。因此，在可口可乐连续13年登顶全球最佳品牌之后，Interbrand今年选择了新的第一名：苹果。”
Interbrand估计，苹果的品牌价值目前为983亿美元，较2012年上升28%。可口可乐的品牌价值同样出现增长，但仅同比增长2%，至792亿美元。因此，可口可乐今年被苹果超过。
在今年的报告中，排名第2的品牌是谷歌，而去年谷歌排名第4。实际上，在2013年前10大品牌中，有5家是科技公司，分别为苹果、谷歌，以及排名第5的微软、排名第8的三星和排名第9的英特尔。
三星的排名从第9上升至第8。三星执行副总裁及首席营销官Sue Shim表示，三星正在采取名为Brand Ideal的全新品牌战略，这一战略专注于社交目的。有研究显示，美国消费者正转向能改善人们生活的品牌。
IBM今年排名第4，较去年下降一位，但IBM并未被归类为科技品牌，而是企业服务品牌。如果将IBM也算作科技品牌，那么前10名中的科技公司将达到6家。
