The tech MBA

With the technology sector a leading disruptor for many traditional industries, the top business schools are fostering entrepreneurial labs to create skill-sets aligned to start-up business concepts.


It is entirely foreseeable that the business education sector was developing a technology aligned MBA certification. The technology industry is heavily invested in start-ups and cash intensive research based projects.

The entrepreneurial labs at the leading universities are designing strategies to create value for the concepts they generate. I would suggest the standard strategy course be upgraded to include tech outcomes, finance is still important and this may include modifications to marketing.

Naturally, entrepreneurship would be a required unit, the need to generate a concept, foster the the idea, create a business plan, market the plan to investors to finance the start-up is the core skill-set. Whilst MBA education has become more generalist, the requirements of a specialist degree are obvious.
