Tetr College of Business has secured $18 million (€15.5m) in funding from Owl Ventures and Bertelsmann India Investments to accelerate its global expansion.

The college, headquartered outside India, aims to redefine business education with a hands-on, multi-country approach.

Tarun Gangwar, COO & Co-founder, said, “We understand that academic consistency and teaching quality are paramount. We’ve established a rigorous faculty selection process that ensures a diverse and high-caliber team of educators. Standardised Course Design ensures every course is aligned with Tetr’s core philosophy of learning by doing.”

Tetr’s model moves beyond traditional classroom learning. Undergraduate and MiM-Tech students will launch and scale businesses across Dubai, Shanghai, and Madrid, gaining direct experience with companies like Tesla, Emirates, Emaar, and Iberdrola. Coworking spaces and AI and robotics labs on new campuses support collaborative and technology-driven projects.

The MiM-Tech programme targets early-career professionals, founders, and family business leaders, combining global immersion with structured mentorship. Students also complete internships in start-ups, venture capital firms, and multinational corporations. Gangwar added, “Our teaching methodology is interactive, engaging, and immersive.”

Applications have surged by over 50 per cent this year, with an acceptance rate of just 2.6 per cent, reflecting the demand for practical, global business education. The inaugural cohort launched 44 ventures, generating more than $324,000 (€278,000) in revenue.

Partnerships with universities, investors, and industry leaders aim to scale ventures and improve career outcomes. Students gain access to mentorship, funding networks, and strategic corporate collaborations.
