AAPL and GOOG are the strongest innovators in the last decade; finance is run in NY, NC and CA; several healthcare firms dominate their field, not sure where they are all HQ'ed, agricultural and mining machinery is still strong for global markets, Boeing is one of two major plane makers in the world, and so on.
