Most of Europe’s most valuable companies come from the United Kingdom, France, Switzerland and Deutschland.
The four countries account for 37 of the 50 most valuable companies on the continent.
With an * for Airbus and Stellantis.
Airbus shareholding capital is French (11,6%), German (10,9%), Spanish (4,17%). It’s head office is situated in France (as well as manufacturing)(other manufacturing area in Hamburg, Deutschland for the Civil sector and Getafe, Espana for Military) and Nederland because it’s an European company for fiscal purposes. But it’s not a Dutch company.
Same for Stellantis, not a Dutch Company but for fiscal purposes located there.
*located. I did a double take because I thought it said lactating
Revenue is more interesting, imo. Since market cap is just about stock prices, which is just how much “faith” people have in a company.
So many from the eastern Europe… 🙂
Volkswagen group, Bayer pharma and Philips should surely be on the list.
Equinor that small? Really surprised
Weird how UK and Germany are not on top 7 considering they are the biggest economies in europe
No Ikea? They are technically headquartered in the Netherlands I think. Or is this just listed companies?
Aren’t Unilever and Airbus in the wrong order?
Surprised there isn’t a single italian company.
Worldwide NOVO is not even in the top 10.
With its current profit generating, buy ups, new production facilities and increasing workforce it might become one of the 10 most valuable before 2030.
Just to illustrate how humongeously valuably a company NOVO is for Denmark, the Danish company Maersk on this list is number 814. A tiny shipping company with 89000 workers and it generated a $28.6 billion profit after tax in 2022
Atlas Copco is so big and swedish? Wow
HSBC still operating is a real black stain on this graph. It’s executives should be in prison and it’s holdings nationalized and dissolved.
How do the Netherlands get Airbus? Isn’t it headquartered in Toulouse, France?
I have been using novo nordisk insulin for almost 20 years now, but never realized they produce something else. Is their main profit from everything insulin/diabetes related or do they make a lot of other medical stuff too?
Edit: thanks everybody, so they have found a golden vein of anti-obesity drugs.
So basically the EU goes strong in pharma, cosmetics and luxury products, while it does not that good in technology and engineering. Or am I understanding this wrong?
UK has the most overrated economy of all time.
What is Accenture and why is it located way above many well-known car brands?
Mandatory r/fucknestle
Novo Nodick looks real fat in this chart
Funny how a luxury company is valuated higher than asml, which literally the world depends on
Fuck Nestle!
r/FuckNestle/
Just to remind everybody how big Novo is: the company singlehandedly pulled the Danish state out of a possible recession last year
I wish Portugal had at least one on this list, but even our biggest companies are so small…
Today I learned that Linde is not a german company anymore. With the headquarters in Dublin they are irish though now, not british.
If someone is wondering, this is from The European Correspondent, a newsletter created to give europeans the most important weekly news from every European country! Each day is a different European region.
HTF is Accenture one of the most valuable companies and allocated to Ireland.
What about Microsoft, Meta and Google with their EU headquarters located in Ireland, never mind Apple who are still in dispute with the EU over a 13bn tax bill for Ireland
I’m surprised not to see Ryanair here
Prosus… Internet “services”. “Value Added Services” or mobile games with microtransactions. You get the point, bigger than Mercedes Benz, wild times.

Shell British? I though it’s full name was “Royal Dutch She’ll”?
So close to “lactated”, so close.
In another timeline, Nokia would be up there 🙃. But interesting graph.
Zero fucks given
L’Oréal=Nestlé
Are we actually counting the Irish ones? Companies like Accenture and Medtronic are Irish on paper. For Medtronic specifically, their main HQ, CEO, manufacturing, etc are in Minnesota, USA. The economic footprints for these companies are overwhelmingly not in Ireland, so it doesn’t really seem to stack up to the rest of these countries.
