Abstract
The present study of Corporate Communication publications is extremely high in the present era compared to initial years of the study. Corporate Communication research papers exhibit a discernible an increasing trend, The maximum number of research papers, 177(13.18%), was published in the year 2023, followed by 157(1169%) in 2022, and the third-highest year for publications was 2019 with a total of 138(10.28%) research papers in Corporate Communication during the study period. The study, author Zerfass, A. from the United States holds the highest number of the publications, contribute 16(15.53%) research publications., a maximum of 888(66.12%) research publications are contributed the Article distribution of document type in Corporate Communication research publications. The time series analysis application is anticipated in Corporate Communication research papers to be about equal to 184 in 2025 and approximately equal to 209 in 2030. At that point, a thorough investigation proved that there is a growing tendency in the papers on Corporate Communication research. The institutions during the study period according to the analysis, the Aarhus University published the most articles on Corporate Communication research, with 23(11.98. The majority of the articles on Corporate Communication research for the study period were published in the Corporate Communication with 115(35.17%), 1789(38.80%) research publications. The United States contributed the most articles, amounting to more than 5671(38.88%) research publications.
