About Us

Our beliefs

The modern world is changing at an astonishing pace. Education has transformed into a process of lifelong learning, a trend that will intensify as time goes on.

As a consequence of these processes, the cost of education continues to rise, limiting access to modern education that can empower individuals to achieve economic and social success. This drives and exacerbates inequality on our planet.

Good education is a privilege for the few, when it should be a fundamental right for all.

MESSAGE FROM THE FOUNDER

Why?

Why is live, world class education from renowned speakers, industry professionals, and university professors not available to everyone? At Next University, we want to significantly enhance the accessibility of high quality education from top speakers from around the world, overcoming barriers posed by outdated education models and ever-increasing fees.

We strongly oppose the existing elitist approach to education worldwide and are committed to ensuring that high-quality education is accessible to all people across the globe.

Founder and CEO

Solutions and values

We offer numerous annual courses covering various aspects of business and tech, as well as work-life balance. All the lectures are presented LIVE by globally recognized speakers.

Why Live?

Engagement is essential for education. We observed dozens of online education providers and learned their statistics from the inside. We realized that prerecorded courses often lose relevance quickly. For instance, any AI course will lose its relevance 4-6 months after being recorded, and this is reflected in students retention, with the majority of users dropping out before completion.

The live format ensures real-time interaction and content that doesn’t lose relevance, keeping education both current, compelling, and fun. We do not offer pre-recorded teaching, but we have an extensive Archive where you can re-watch the lectures you liked.

What's going on at Next University?

Thousands of students engage in live lectures, collectively absorbing relevant knowledge from industry professionals with a possibility to exchange comments and ask questions in real time. At Next University, learning is dynamic and enjoyable.

Our vision and goals

We want one billion people from all over the world to have access to high-quality education by 2030. What kind of impact can this have on the world? Will it make the world better informed, more capable, and engaged? We believe it will.

To achieve this goal, we want to create hundreds of programs, invite dozens of teachers, and make the price as affordable as possible. Right now, we offer 1 year of training at a low price. And we will continue to make high-quality lectures even more affordable.

Our progress

Currently, we boast a student body of over 20,000 colleagues from 100+ countries, and have delivered more than 500 lectures in the past two years. We have many renowned experts as our speakers, including: Philip Kotler, Seth Godin, Martin Lindstrom, Marshall Goldsmith, James Clear, plus the founders of Shazam, Siri, top executives from Starbucks, Google, Apple, Samsung, Lego, and many other companies. Additionally, all of our live sessions are simultaneously translated into Spanish and Portuguese, and we are looking to expand to other languages as well.
