LTV Business School brings the students, the curriculum, the operator faculty, and the capital. You award the degree. Together we launch the venture-builder program where graduates leave owning a real company, and your name is on it.

The market is shifting under traditional business education. Employers question its value, students question its return, and a new category, the venture-builder degree, is forming fast. The question for a forward-looking university is whether to lead it or watch it.
of employers say recent graduates need moderate or significant additional training. The gap between what is taught and what the market needs has become impossible to ignore.
of employers believe colleges are graduating students with the skills their organizations actually need. Differentiation on applied outcomes is now a strategic advantage.
economies rate entrepreneurship education as the single weakest condition for founders. The demand for genuine, applied entrepreneurial education far outstrips the supply.
a triple-accredited business school launched a venture-studio bachelor's degree in Dubai. The category is no longer hypothetical. First movers will define it.
Dubai sits at the center of capital flows from the Gulf, Europe, and South Asia, with zero income tax and founder-friendly visas. A campus here is an international pipeline, not just a local one.
this is a flagship, high-margin program you can launch without building it yourself. We have already done the operator-side work. You add the credential and the academic rigor.
This is not an attempt to become a university. We have no interest in awarding degrees ourselves. We run the program and the venture studio. You provide and protect the credential. Each side does what it is genuinely best at.
Universities have delivered degrees through partners for decades. We are open to whichever structure fits your institution and your regulator. The three most realistic paths:
You validate a business or entrepreneurship programme that we design and deliver, and award your own degree to graduates. We keep delivery and the student experience; you keep academic control and the credential. The most common route for transnational programmes.
We deliver an accredited intermediate qualification, and your institution awards the final degree through a guaranteed top-up year. A proven, lower-friction path that gets a recognized award in front of students quickly.
You hold academic governance and the award; we operate everything else, from technology and recruitment to delivery and student success. Suited to institutions that want reach without operational lift.
In Brazil, Link School of Business built exactly this model, an accredited degree fused with a venture engine, and the results speak plainly. We are bringing that model to Dubai and adding what Link does not have: the school investing its own capital in every promising company.

Figures above describe Link School of Business and are cited as evidence the category works. They are not LTV Business School results. We are at the founding stage, which is precisely why launch partners get to shape what this becomes.
The reason this works is the people behind it. LTV is a holding company that buys and scales real businesses. We are not consultants writing a curriculum about entrepreneurship. We are the entrepreneurs, and we are putting our own capital and reputation into the program.
From JP Morgan Private Client Banker, top 250 of 20,000 reps, to entrepreneur. Built and sold a retail business, became a leading Amazon and eBay seller, then scaled a Dubai cloud kitchen to $30M ARR before a private equity acquisition.
Coding at 14, first business at 16. Two decades bootstrapping online businesses, then scaled ad technology to $5.1M in a single month. Today runs roughly 70 people and proprietary systems processing over 1 billion data points a day.
We are committing capital, a Dubai campus, and a founding team. This is a flagship we intend to build for the long term, the same way we operate every business we own.
Because we invest in the student companies, our incentives point at graduate success, not just enrollment. That alignment protects your brand as much as it drives ours.
A Dubai base gives your degree reach across MENA, Europe, and South Asia, and a flagship program that differentiates you in a crowded global market.
A premium program with a motivated, selective intake. We handle recruitment and delivery; you earn from a flagship offering without the operational build.
If your institution wants to lead the venture-builder category rather than follow it, we should talk. We will walk you through the curriculum, the model, the economics, and exactly what a partnership would ask of each side.
