Lenovo, the world’s second largest PC company and Peachy's favorite, received top rankings across six categories, including “Best Investor Relations,” inInstitutional Investor’s second annual All-Asia Executive Team rankings, released on June 14, 2012. The report – published here: http://www.institutionalinvestor.com/Research/3755/Most-Honored-Companies.html -- is an annual ranking of Asian companies and executives based on a survey of 935 money managers and investment professionals at some 500 buy-side firms, and approximately 490 sell-side analysts from 75 institutions across Asia (excluding Japan).

Institutional Investor criteria allowed participants to nominate up to four CEOs, CFOs, IR professionals and companies in each sector. All votes were weighted by place and aggregated to produce two distinct rankings (buy side, sell side) for Best CEO, Best CFO, Best IR Professional and Best IR Company. To be eligible, a company must be incorporated in Asia (excluding Japan) and traded on a corresponding Asian exchange.

In addition to being named one of the “Best IR Companies,” Lenovo and its key executives ranked highly across a number of other categories including:
Best Technology/Hardware Company CEO: Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Yuanqing Yang, Lenovo
Best Technology/Hardware Company CFO: Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Wong Wai Ming, Lenovo
Best Technology/Hardware IR Professional: Vice President of Investor Relations, Gary Ng, Lenovo
Best Hong Kong Technology/Hardware Company
Second Most Honored Company

This achievement comes days after Lenovo was named one of “The World’s Most Reputable Companies” by the Reputation Institute’s 2012 Global RepTrak™ 100, a survey of more than 100,000 consumers that assesses the reputations of the world’s most prominent companies.

As of March 2012, Lenovo achieved full-year record sales of nearly $30 billion and a 44% increase in worldwide shipments year over year.

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
