Business Education, built for the AI Era
Augment Highlights
Why We Exist
People often ask why we’re building Augment. The truth is, Augment was no spark of genius. We’re building it because we have to.
In 2020, we were sitting in the classroom of one of the most prestigious business schools in the world. To our surprise, our professors were academics who preached textbook theories.
The MBA was already broken. Then AI arrived and finished it off. Business is now rewritten every quarter by the people doing the work.
So we set out to build the school the AI era needs. Practical. Taught by the people actually building, running, and reshaping business right now. On your terms. And costing less than 1% of a traditional MBA.
This is why exist.

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.
