Here is a (humble) list of Image Processing / Computer Vision based companies around the world.
Even though image processing is a field in rampant development, I recently struggled to locate such companies when searching for a new job. The problem was in fact not to get hired but to find companies that would match my centre of interests !
Thus, I started to keep track of every firm I would hear about and may be interested in my profile. I hope this can help some of you !
The companies below are listed by country. For each of them, you will find the main website and a quick summary of the field of expertise (keywords). Once my list is populated enough, I might think about a more evoluated system

Happy to see that it was useful for you !
Dear julien
Your website is really helpful. I am particulalrly looking for vision research companies who would find the modelling of interactions between people/objects useful. Also i am working on synergistic interactions between low level (object detection/ tracking) and high level (event detection). Would you be knowing any companies that may find this kind of expertise useful ?
Many thanks

Hi Krishna,
The only company I worked with in this field was VTT, a finnish research center that was doing pretty much what you are talking about.
You might want to try there
