1. Alibaba
Alibaba is a huge Chinese E-commerce company that filed registration documents to go public in the U.S. in May of the current year. Founded in 1999, Alibaba is outstandingly large: it controls 80% of the Chinese e-commerce market. The company claims to have about 300 million customers, a fact that is not surprising if you take into account that China has a population of 1.4 billion people: a gigantic customer base. China has great business potential, and Alibaba ranking at the top of the countdown shows just how much their own potential is as a result.
