Who we are
Ariel Renous and Roy Wellner, two lifelong friends with a passion for business, started their educational journey in a renowned European business school. They quickly realized there was a disconnect: many of their instructors were academics that lacked real-world experience.
Frustrated by the offering, they saw a genuine need for a new kind of business education, one that was in tune with the demands of today's professionals and taught by those with firsthand experience in business.
That was the seed from which Augment grew. Partnering with experts in business education and world-class entrepreneurs from companies like Wikipedia, YouTube, Waze, and Shazam, they crafted an innovative MBA program.
Augment’s approach is to reshape education by leveraging online tools to offer high-quality business knowledge straight from the minds of our brightest business leaders.
Our teachers don’t just study the market - they define it.
With the support of eminent investors, Augment stands poised to democratize access to top-tier business education. We are committed to empowering ambitious professionals across the globe with knowledge that is both accessible and exceptional.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the entry requirements?
We care more about your drive than your past studies or job experience. Primarily, we look at your motivation and willingness to apply the knowledge in your daily life. There’s no need to have a co-founder or a business idea to apply either.
What if my application isn’t successful?
This is usually because we didn’t sense enough motivation to commit to the MBA program. If this happens, we encourage you to try again in a few weeks or months.
I work full-time, is this program for me?
Yes, most of our students work full-time. We designed Augment to be completely online and self-paced. Our program works around your busy schedule, with most students making a 20-40-minute daily commitment.
How long does the program take to complete?
The Augment MBA is self-paced, so completion times vary. Most students take between 4 and 6 months to finish the program.
An MBA for $2,450? What’s the catch?
Our independence from traditional academic institutions and accreditation bodies means we have much more flexibility than traditional MBA programs. Our mission is to make premium business education accessible by making it as affordable as possible.
Does Augment Offer Financial Aid?
Augment offers financial aid to highly motivated individuals who lack the financial resources to access our program. Ask your admissions advisor to learn more or write us at: admissions@augment.org.
Is Augment more than just video lessons?
Yes. About one-third of our program consists of video lectures. There is also written text , visualizations, case studies, interactive quizzes, downloadable handbooks, events, and more.
Is the Augment MBA accredited?
No, and we have no intention of seeking accreditation. An accredited Master’s Degree comes with many constraints and expenses — that’s what we’re working against. Instead, we provide graduates with the Augment MBA certificate, signed by Chris Barton, the Founder of Shazam.

Yes. All students are eligible for a full refund within 15 days of enrollment - no questions asked.
