Norberto Odebrecht (born 9 October 1920 in Recife) is a Brazilian engineer, businessman and founder of the Brazilian Odebrecht Foundation (Portuguese: Fundação Odebrecht).[1]

He is the son of the pioneer Emílio Odebrecht, who was a grandson of Emil Odebrecht, a German geodetical engineer and cartographer, who emigrated to Brazil in 1856.
