It's well known that RedHat is one of the big contributors to the Linux
kernel.

Are there any distribution vendors that have a similar relationship with
GNOME?

I assume several must have at least a few engineers dedicated to working
on it, but I get the impression that no vendor has all that much
influence over the project. The Canonical departure exemplifies this.
