ABOUT
Hani Mostafa

Hi, I’m Hani.

I’ve spent decades in rooms where editorial decisions get made under pressure — leading newsroom operations, managing multilingual teams, and running field deployments across 3 continents.

I bring frontline experience to newsrooms, broadcasters, and organizations that need editorial workflows built for breaking news — faster turnaround, fewer post-air corrections, and multilingual content.
