Average reactions per post is calculated as total engagements (sum of total likes and total retweets) / total posts shared during the period.
GlobalData’s latest influencer report, ‘Top 50 CEOs on Twitter’, reveals that majority of top CEOs belong to the tech industry, and consequently the most discussed trends were ‘Metaverse’, ‘Decentralization’, ‘Cryptocurrency’, and ’Cloud security’ during Q4 2021.
