What happened: Microsoft is the world’s most valuable B2B brand, according to Millward Brown.

The company has seen “exponential growth” in its commercial-cloud business — which has mostly been driven by its Office 365 programs — and Windows 10 is now active on more than 270 million devices worldwide.
