Diogo Rodriguez
São Paulo, Brazil
I am a Journalist, writer, and entrepreneur from São Paulo, Brazil. Currently, I'm in New York for a fellowship at the Tow-Knight Center for Entrepreneurial Journalism. I created Me Explica, an explanatory news platform that has a community of more than 40,000.

I have covered technology, entrepreneurship, science, and lifestyle for major outlets in Brazil. I am also interested in politics, innovation, and the future of journalism.

On my spare time, I binge watch The Simpsons, look for THE perfect burger, and try to keep up with the fellow kids on Twitter.

Entrepreneurial Journalism
In 2019, I came to New York for a fellowship at the Tow-Knight Center for Entrepreneurial Journalism. Here I am developing business skills to be able to create sustainable economic models for journalism initiatives. My objective is to use this knowledge not only on my own projects, but also share it with my peers in Brazil. To document this journey, I created a newsletter (in Portuguese).
