Strategic Partner ManagerYouTube
Breanna Zwart’s work is rooted in a clear mission: bringing partners together to amplify and support diverse voices through the power of technology. Breanna’s strategic eye for business priorities is laser-focused on driving both profit and social impact through her foundation of public policy and international relations.
Breanna was instrumental in shaping and driving Google’s Next Billion Users strategy for Access in Emerging Markets, focusing on regulatory issues and internet infrastructure. She cultivated government and private sector partnerships that showed the impact possible at the intersection of tech and social impact: bringing Internet infrastructure to India, managing relationships with the Government of Liberia and USAID, bringing Google Street View to Tunisia, and representing Google at the Cuban Foreign Ministry. Her thought leadership advanced Google’s agenda to connect the Next 5 Billion Users, ultimately shaping the World Bank 2016 development report “Digital Dividends: Internet and the Developing World.”
Taking on YouTube’s strategy to empower content partnerships with NGOs, nonprofits, and human rights defenders, Breanna has advised a range of leading organizations, including Doctors Without Borders and the Malala Fund, delivering powerful digital storytelling programming to a global audience and providing them with training and resources to build their engagement and thrive on the platform. She played a key role in producing the YouTube Original event on racial injustice, Bear Witness Take Action, which earned more than 4.8 million views to date, and she produced a VR experience of child incarceration that went live on the Campaign for the Fair Sentencing of Youth channel.
