Eduardo Matarazzo Suplicy (born 21 June 1941) is a Brazilian left-wing politician, economist and professor. He is one of the founders and main political figures on the Workers Party of Brazil (PT). In the municipal elections of São Paulo in 2016 was consecrated as the most voted city councilor in the history of Brazil.

Suplicy is primarily known for being an early supporter of universal basic income.[1][2][3] Suplicy was a candidate for President of Brazil in the 2002 election, losing the Workers' Party (PT) nomination to Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.[4][5] Suplicy was previously married to Marta Suplicy, the former Mayor of São Paulo.[6]
