the most authentic faces of LinkedIn

In March 2025 Forbes Hungary published its first LinkedIn list: the twenty-five most active, most credible content creators in Hungarian business life — entrepreneurs, executives and specialists, from America to Singapore, who share real content and genuinely usable knowledge on the platform, use it deliberately to build a personal brand, and reach a broad, relevant audience.

The ranking took half a year to build. It began from five hundred Hungarian LinkedIn profiles, and — as with every Forbes brand-value list — follower count alone counted for little. What mattered: a well-kept profile, deliberate posting, an active community with a defined audience, and content that draws readers in and bursts a bubble or two. Beyond the editors’ own profile analysis, the ranking drew on data from Favikon, the French influencer-marketing platform.
