BusinessWeek: The World's 50 Most Innovative Companies

BusinessWeek and the Boston Consulting Group have compiled their list of the fifty most innovative companies in the world. Though the list is certainly interesting from the perspective of conversation, the methodology, described at the bottom of the page, seems intrinsically flawed. For example, I'm not sure that I can take a list that seriously contends ExxonMobil is an innovative company. How many billions in R&D have they wasted? A more interesting list would include smaller start-up companies challenging the status quo and introducing disruptive technologies and services like Tesla Motors and GlobeFunder.
