Java has IBM, Oracle, Red Hat, many companies, and the JCP

C++ has Microsoft, Intel, many companies, and ISO/IEC JTC1/SC22/WG21

Rust has Mozilla, and lots of companies thinking it beats C++.

Go has Google, Cloudflare, and many companies, mostly Web focussed.

Swift has Apple, and the entire iOS community.

D has ???
