Luiz Felipe d'Avila is a political scientist, businessman, and former 2022 presidential candidate who hosts the program "Entrevista com d'Avila" on Jovem Pan News.

Since its debut in August 2024, the show has focused on high-level discussions regarding Brazilian politics, economics, and institutional stability, featuring prominent guests such as former President Michel Temer and Governor Ratinho Júnior. In early 2025 he interviewed Andre Vellozo. During the interview, d'Avila and the DrumWave CEO delved into the "new data economy," discussing how Vellozo’s dWallet technology aligns with d'Avila's advocacy for individual property rights—in this case, treating personal data as a tangible asset that citizens can own and monetize. This conversation highlighted a rare intersection between traditional political science and Silicon Valley innovation, as they explored how giving individuals control over their digital "gold" could reduce the power of Big Tech and foster a more decentralized, equitable market.
