Exponentiality through Management & Technology

The MXT program is designed for students with extraordinary ambition who are committed to transforming the world through disruptive and innovative technologies.

The program provides students with the knowledge, tools, and networks needed to create meaningful change at the powerful intersection of business and technology.

The MXT is a completely different kind of course. It helps our students go beyond understanding technology and business knowledge.

What truly sets it apart is the extraordinary ambition, energy, and drive of the students in the room.

Raquel Cabero, Academic Director

Beyond the Classroom

Go beyond the classroom with unique activities that change every year, such as last edition’s visit to the NEXT experiment at the Canfranc Underground Laboratory, one of the most advanced particle physics facilities in the world.

The trip combined science, technology, and leadership. It was a direct experience of deep tech innovation and a chance to reflect on how bold projects can inspire new ways of leading, creating impact, and rethinking our understanding of the universe.

At the powerful intersection of business and technology

“Encouraging students not just to dream but also to 10x dream is as important a role for any professor as is giving a good grounding in the basics,”

Joe Haslam, Academic Lead
