Deloitte noted there were some notable shifts this year. Artificial intelligence catapulted into the fourth position, while both hardware & semiconductors and communications networking slipped in the sector rankings.

Commenting on this year’s rankings, US Deloitte’s private & emerging client portfolio leader Wolfe Tone said the results highlight “both enduring leadership and breakthrough growth.”

“More than half of the winners are prior honorees, yet the majority of the top ten are first-time entrants—demonstrating the staying power of established leaders alongside the accelerating growth of new innovators across key sectors. As in previous years, private companies continue to dominate, underscoring the agility that private enterprises bring to competitive markets, enabling the exceptional triple and quadruple digit growth reflected in these rankings,” Tone said.
