Apple’s already the most valuable company in tech, but are they on target to become the biggest company in tech as well? According to analyst George Colony, who founded the Forrester Research group, they’re on track: they’ll outgrow both IBM and HP in the next two years.
“They’ll be bigger than IBM next year, and they’ll be bigger than HP the year after that,” Colony said, citing Apple’s 52 percent sales growth last year.
If they keep up they’re current growth rates, they’ll soon be a $200 billion revenue company. That’s a lot headier a number than HP’s sales of $126 billion last year, or IBM’s sales of $99.9 billion last year, which makes them the largest tech companies by sales.
In 2010, Apple became the biggest tech company when it comes to market capitalization. It looks like by 2012, the sales will follow suit.
