The Global 5000 database of the largest companies in the world continues to provide B2B marketers a timely, continually updated source of business information for business lead generation, CRM systems and ABM activity.
For the month of August 2021, 17 new companies were added to the Global 5000 database. This brings our total new companies added over the last 12 months to 261. During the month, 607 company records were updated as we continue our regular, daily updating process.
Every month we complete a series of updates so that we cycle thru the entire database annually. In this process there are always a number of changes and major deals in the M&A world. Companies with a marketing database that don’t follow this level of activity are truly missing out in their sales and marketing efforts.
Some of the top companies we added during the month included:
- JS Global Lifestyle Co Ltd is a $4 bln Hong Kong based consumer goods company
- Opendoor Technologies Inc. provides real estate services
- LGI Homes, Inc. is a home builder
- Seagen, Inc. is a $2 bllion biotech company
- Franchise Group operates as a franchise retailer for a number of name brand consumer companies
And some of the notable firms we removed from the active file include the following:
- NTT DoCoMo, Inc. – removed as NTT bought back all the shares
- Yankuang Group merged with Shandong Energy
- Unione di Banche Italiane SpA was acquired by Intesa Sanpaolo
- Bankia SA merged with Caixabank
- SharkNinja is a subsidiary of JS Global Lifestyle Co Ltd
