The platform is also rolling out creator-led shows hosted by business influencers such as Steven Bartlett, Rebecca Minkoff, and Guy Raz, covering topics from leadership and AI to entrepreneurship.

LinkedIn has introduced new features to support video content, including vertical video formats, improved in-feed design, advanced analytics, and integration with Adobe Express for streamlined ad creation. Connected TV (CTV) ads are now generally available in the US and Canada, offering additional reach for advertisers.
