Interestingly, the only two companies I know from that list are in the field of aviation: Embraer and NetJets.

Jamba certainly takes me back.

I'd heard of Bobcat, De La Rue, Embraer, McIlhenny, Petzl, Tandberg (famous for reel-to-reel tape-recorders). I do think it's wonderful that the list includes a company known for "wristwatch hands".

Molex is a pretty well-known name because of the eponymous connector, but I'd never considered whether it might be a company.

I knew ARRI, Embraer, Höganäs, from their old school kitchen ware) and Enercon.

I thought I knew "International SOS", but I actually knew "SOS International", another entity altogether.
