LENOVO RECOGNIZED ON INTERBRAND’S BEST GLOBAL BRANDS LIST FOR 3RD CONSECUTIVE YEAR

Lenovo (HKSE: 992) (ADR: LNVGY) has been named today as one of the Best Global Brands in Interbrand’s annual top 100, marking the third straight year Lenovo has been part of the list. Interbrand’s annual Best Global Brands list features an elite group of the world’s most powerful and recognizable global brands, selected based on a combination of attributes that capture a brand’s cumulative value, including the ability to transcend geographic and cultural boundaries. More information and the full rankings are available here.

At the core of Lenovo’s business values and practices is the philosophy that “Different is Better,” a point of view that advocates pushing the limits of technology, design and engineering to create products that are not only innovative but ultimately benefit the lives of customers in unprecedented ways. This recognition from Interbrand is an affirmation of the pursuit of this philosophy, as well as the unifying platform the brand plays for a product portfolio that spans mobile phones to data centers.

Now in its 18th year, the Interbrand Best Global Brands list identifies and ranks the top 100 international brands by analyzing the ways a brand impacts and benefits an organization, from attracting top talent to delivering on customer expectations and driving economic value.

"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!"
