Master of Business, Entrepreneurship and Technology (MBET) alumni

Career outcomes

Since its launch in 2002, the Master of Business, Entrepreneurship and Technology program has prepared graduates not only to start ventures, but also to lead innovation within organizations.

MBET alumni build careers at the intersection of innovation, technology, and business, typically following one of three paths:

Founding or co-founding new ventures,
Leading product management, market validation, and sales initiatives,
Driving AI-enabled business applications and digital transformation within organizations.

Across these paths, about 50% of MBET alumni take on leadership roles early in their careers, with many advancing to Manager, Director, Founder, or Co-Founder positions, while more than one in five are actively building their own ventures.

They are part of a global network spanning 29 countries and bring diverse academic backgrounds and industry experience to sectors including technology, finance, education, consulting, and healthcare.
