Interbrand is a brand valuation firm that publishes an annual ranking of the top 100 global brands. It values brands based on both quantitative and subjective factors like financial performance, marketing investment, and brand strength. Interbrand's methodology for valuing brands was the first to be ISO certified. It examines the financial performance generated by branded products/services, the influence of brands on consumer choice, and the premium and revenue brands command. Brand value goes beyond products/services and assets to intangibly generate value for a company.
