This year marks the 15th anniversary for Fortune's list of the World's Most Admired Companies. In that span only three companies -- GE, Berkshire Hathaway, and P&G -- have ranked first in their industry every time. This year's all-star list is led by tech companies, and Apple takes the No. 1 spot.

The survey shows that the tumult in the business world continues: A record 30 companies supplanted last year's industry leaders at the top of their categories. The previous record? Last year, when 23 usurpers took the No. 1 spot.

Check out the top ten most admired companies in the gallery below, and see the full list on CNN Money.
