50 Top Digital Influencers to Follow at the end of 2020 and in 2021

Here’s our new annual Fine List of 50 Top Global Digital Influencers to Follow on Twitter in 2021 [ranked by our home made algorithm]. This list is of course non exhaustive 😉

11/2020 Update

This list is covering major Topics around the global economic and technical Digital Transformation, such as: Digital Marketing/SEO, Social Media Marketing, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Ethics, IoT (Internet of Things), IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things), Algorithms, Neural Networks, Autonomous Vehicles, Digital Health, Cloud, Smart Cities, Automation, Robotics, Robots/Bots/Chatbots, Future of Work, Data Science, Big Data, Analytics, Fintech, Insurtech, DevOps, Edtech, Cyber Security…

The ‘Authority Score’ in this list is a mix of online and also “real life” engagement (this special year 2020 is of course also about ‘online events’ engagement). “Giant” companies are not as always in this list because they don’t “play the same game” ;=)

Hope you’ll enjoy this list (the ranking here is in fact not important, the important things are the ideas, knowledge, and insights shared by the experts and influencers there).

Take care, and stay all safe and healthy.
