Nabanita De: Powering Privacy, Purpose, and Possibility
Founder, Privacy License📍 United States | LinkedIn

Nabanita De isn’t just building platforms—she’s building trust, momentum, and systems that scale with integrity. As the founder of Privacy License, she’s leading a global mission to redefine how we handle privacy, transparency, and digital ethics. But her journey began much earlier. The first in her community to move to the U.S. for graduate studies—on a full tuition waiver—she quickly proved her instinct for impact. She built Fib, a fake news detection tool for Facebook, which won the Google Moonshot Prize at Princeton and was downloaded across 135 countries in its first week. It went viral, earning attention from CNN, BBC, Wired, and Business Insider, and cemented Nabanita as a visionary voice in ethical tech.
Her momentum has never slowed. What started as a personal effort to help a family member return to work became Returnships.org, a global initiative honored by Fast Company and accessed in over 100 countries. She’s formed partnerships with Amazon, UNICEF, the United Nations, and more—bringing strategy, innovation, and human-centered purpose to every collaboration. Nabanita doesn’t move for ego or applause. She moves with clarity, courage, and conviction, because she’s not waiting for permission to lead the future. She’s engineering it. One solution. One story. One bold act at a time.
