Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolNatália Mazotte is a journalist, educator and news-product leader with 12+ years building data-driven journalism initiatives, civic tech programs and newsroom partnerships across Brazil and LATAM. As News Product and Programs Manager for Latam at Google and former head of Abraji and Open Knowledge Brasil, she combines product-minded partnership building with deep expertise in data journalism, public policy evaluation and community scaling. She co-founded the data-focused newsroom Gênero e Número and School of Data Brazil, launching training programs and events that reached thousands and helped seed influential civic projects like Operação Serenata de Amor. An associate professor at Insper and a Knight Fellow at Stanford, she blends academic rigor with hands-on product practice—teaching strategic communications and designing a graduate program in data journalism and automation. Comfortable leading cross-functional teams and diversifying revenue and partnership models, she’s known for turning data literacy into sustainable programs that influence media, philanthropy and public sector stakeholders.
