“LinkedInfluencer” isn’t an official term at LinkedIn HQ, but that could soon change. The Microsoft-owned networking platform created its first influencer program more than a decade ago, but, as video content has become more popular in recent years, its potential as a creator platform has only grown. In 2021, LinkedIn added a “creator mode” for analytics and sharing, and in May, it expanded its in-stream video ad program to include the option to place ads against influencer content. At the same time, it launched original shows from known business figures like fashion designer Rebecca Minkoff and Sprinkles bakery founder Candace Nelson. Even before the expansion, video consumption on LinkedIn was growing. In its latest earnings report, Microsoft reported that time spent watching videos on LinkedIn increased 36%, and the platform’s total revenue increased 7%. “People are creating more content…People are consuming more of it,” Matt Derella, VP of LinkedIn marketing solutions, told us. “Folks on our platform who have the most credibility around topics that really matter to people are leaning into it, and that’s opening up the opportunity for us now to work with creators in a way that can help them not only drive reach, but build their

INDIANAPOLIS — Construction cranes in the downtown Indianapolis sky are signs the city's best days could be ahead. One of the largest professional websites in the world has validated that opinion through its research. WRTV LinkedIn recently released its ranked list of the 25 Cities on the Rise for 2025. Indianapolis came in 14th place thanks to factors such as new construction, tourism, and the city's pharmaceutical industry. "It's nice to see that people are recognizing everything that's taking shape here," said Indianapolis Department of Metropolitan Development director Megan Vukusich. "Our team has been hard at work on these projects for such a long time. It is extremely rewarding." WRTV The most-notable construction projects rising over Indianapolis are the 38-story Signia Hotel, which is on track to open in a year, and the Elanco headquarters on the west bank of the White River, which will welcome its first employees in October. "I think we're going to continue to see results of the effort that's been put in place with the downtown resiliency strategy," Vukusich said. "I would expect more happening in the built environment, vibrant public spaces, modernized infrastructure." WRTV Indianapolis residents who talked with WRTV also believe the city

Pete DeJoy, the man hired to temporarily take over Astronomer CEO’s Andy Byron’s duties, had a subtle but interesting reaction to an ex-staffer admitting he’s laughed at Byron’s expense following his scandal. DeJoy “liked” a LinkedIn post from Zachary Hensley — who was the vice president of technology and operations at Astronomer from 2019 to 2024 — in which he admitted, “Yes, I’ve laughed at the memes.” The former staffer shared, however, that he had mixed feelings about the entire ordeal, adding, “But I also know Astronomer is more than one moment or one person. It’s a team of smart, kind, driven people doing incredible work. And I’ll always be rooting for them.” Hensley noted in his post that despite seeing all of the memes and having shared “more than a few,” he “felt a strange mix of pride, nostalgia, and whiplash” before gushing about his time at the tech company.

A tech company CEO has resigned after controversy over a video captured on the big screen at a Coldplay concert. Andy Byron resigned from his job as CEO of Astronomer Inc., according to a statement posted on LinkedIn by the company Saturday. “Astronomer is committed to the values and culture that have guided us since our founding. Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability, and recently, that standard was not met,” the company said in its post on LinkedIn. The move comes a day after the company said that Byron had been placed on leave and the board of directors had launched a formal investigation into the incident, which went viral. A short video clip from Coldplay’s concert Wednesday at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, showed a man and a woman cuddling and smiling, his arms wrapped around her, as she leaned back into him.
