While Apple, Google and Amazon are once again the world’s most valuable brands, luxury labels were the biggest stars on this year’s Best Global Brands ranking, unveiled today by brand consultancy firm Interbrand. Published since 1999, the ranking attributes a monetary value to brands with a worldwide presence, based on several aspects such as their financial results, influence and brand strength. Luxury was this year’s top-performing category, having grown 42 percent in brand value in 2017.
