Check FAQAbout Laura
Hi, I'm Laura Martins, a Rio de Janeiro based journalist. I have 10+ years of experience covering technology, business, and the real-world impact of digital systems. My work often investigates how cybersecurity, digital platforms, and innovation reshape lives, economies, and power structures — especially across emerging markets. I’m particularly drawn to underreported stories at the intersection of tech, inequality, and policy. In 2022, I was named one of Brazil’s four most admired tech journalists. I’ve completed the Big Tech Investigation Lab and a month-long editorial fellowship at The Verge, where I deepened my focus on global tech ecosystems. I strive to turn complex issues into clear, engaging stories — with curiosity, structure, and critical perspective. I’m available for freelance reporting, editorial collaborations, and cross-border investigations.
