Measured over 28 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on September 9, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 98 interactions against 248K followers, an engagement rate of 0.04%. Measured over 28 original posts, its engagement rate beats 45% of 6,874 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 8.1K times each, and 1.22% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.25% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 47% of days. Most posts go out around 10:00 UTC, and Friday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 28 posts sampled, 79% carry an image or video, 25% are part of a thread and 68% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 735 interactions, about 7.5x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #kindleflash, #planméxico, #ssrgconference.

Compared with accounts its own size
Mariana Mazzucato's engagement rate beats 45% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (6,874 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 7 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.
On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 52% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.
Where this sits in the catalog
At 0.04%, Mariana Mazzucato sits above the 25th percentile of the 68,576 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.016% to 0.1%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 10:00 UTC, and Friday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Formats this account uses
Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.
| Format | This account | Catalog effect | 95% interval | Accounts behind it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Image or video | 79% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 68% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | +15% | +14% to +16% | 32K |
- 79% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 111% above the same accounts' other posts.
- 68% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts, so a large share of this account's output sits in the weakest bucket we measure.
- Its average post runs 388 characters, which falls in the over 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts over 280 characters run 15% above the same accounts' other posts.
These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

What if we treated Notting Hill Carnival not simply as an event to be funded, but as infrastructure to be invested in? Its communities produce skills, knowledge, networks and innovation that endure long after the last sound system switches off. That requires a very different conversation about public investment—and about who gets to shape Carnival’s future. Seeing it that way changes the question from what Carnival costs to how public institutions can better support and govern the ecosystems that produce it. Our @IIPP_UCL project with @AlvaroBarringto links Carnival in London, Rio and Salvador to develop that framework.

The Common Good Economy is published in Spain next month as Bien Común: Una nueva economía que funcione para todos. I'll be in Spain for the launch from 4 to 6 October, stay tuned for events. Pere Rusiñol writes about the book, and about what a serious progressive alternative in economics requires, for @RevistaAlterEco.

Climate resilience is usually invisible until it fails. Swimmable rivers are a version people can see, use and defend. Treat clean water as climate infrastructure and you build the firms, skills and supply chains to keep it that way, while cutting the cost of inaction.

In the old economics, doing good is a correction. In an economics of the common good, it is an objective we design and work on together. My new book, The Common Good Economy, is published in the US today. Join me at @TheNewSchool in New York tonight for the launch of The Common Good Economy, in conversation with Professor @DarrickHamilton and the poet Natalie Diaz.

The Common Good Economy: A New Compass is out today! It draws together a decade of work--from The Entrepreneurial State to Mission Economy--and asks a different question: not just what the state can do, or how missions can be governed, but what principles have to be in place for any of that to deliver genuine transformation for people and planet.

What would it mean to build an economy around the common good: one that we actively shape together? Join me at @TheNewSchool in New York for the launch of my new book, The Common Good Economy, in conversation with Prof @DarrickHamilton and Natalie Diaz.

Looking forward to Notting Hill Carnival in just a few days! Standard economic frameworks can capture policing costs, tourism receipts, and short-term market activity. They struggle with everything else Carnival produces: skills formation, social infrastructure, joy, civic trust, capabilities built across communities and institutions. Carnival Economics, our @IIPP_UCL project with @AlvaroBarringto, is about recognising and measuring real public value, so that arts and culture are understood as central to how economies create value rather than peripheral to it.

We are hiring three people to work directly in my office at our institute, @IIPP_UCL. IIPP was founded to rethink the role of the state and to challenge traditional economic thinking. Markets are outcomes of interactions between actors, so public policy is not limited to fixing market failures: it can actively shape and co-create markets, and create public value in doing so. Turning that into research, policy and public argument takes a team. Links below.

In the old economics, doing good is a correction to market failure. In an economics of the common good, it is an objective in its own right, and culture is how we imagine that objective and co-create it with the people it affects. Good discussion at @ftweekend today with Prof @DaisyFancourt, Nikki Wright of Bank of America, with Melanie Gerlis from @FT as chair. Links below.

Reading these numbers
A typical post picks up 98 interactions against 248K followers, an engagement rate of 0.04%. Measured over 28 original posts, its engagement rate beats 45% of 6,874 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 8.1K times each, and 1.22% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.25% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline.

- What is Mariana Mazzucato's engagement rate on X?
- Mariana Mazzucato (@MazzucatoM) has an engagement rate of 0.04%, based on the median interactions across 28 original posts from the last 30 days against 248,229 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.04%, Mariana Mazzucato sits above the 25th percentile of the 68,576 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
- Does @MazzucatoM have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 45% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (6,874 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
- When does @MazzucatoM post?
- Most posts go out around 10:00 UTC, and Friday is its busiest day, at roughly 2.03 posts per day across the measured window.
