import sys
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication, QWidget, QComboBox, QPushButton

class ComboBoxDemo(QWidget):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()

        lstCompany = ['Google', 'Facebook', 'Microsoft', 'Apple', 'Uber']

        self.comboBox = QComboBox(self)
        self.comboBox.setGeometry(50, 50, 400, 35)
        self.comboBox.addItems(lstCompany)

        self.btn = QPushButton('Click', self)
        self.btn.setGeometry(170, 120, 120, 35)
        self.btn.clicked.connect(self.getComboValue)

    def getComboValue(self):
        print((self.comboBox.currentText(), self.comboBox.currentIndex()))


app = QApplication(sys.argv)

demo = ComboBoxDemo()
demo.show()

sys.exit(app.exec_())
