AI Isn't Something You Learn. It's How You Learn Everything.
AI-First Curriculum
AI built into every class, every semester. By graduation, you're not adapting to what's coming - you're already ahead of it.
Hands-On from Day 1
From Semester 1, you're using AI to run campaigns and analyse real data. Not reading about how others do it.
Industry Practitioners as Faculty
The people teaching you here don't lecture about AI. They use it: to run teams, close deals, and build businesses.
Only Top 20% Get In
Intent, curiosity, the instinct to act. The peer group matters as much as the program.
Campus Designed for the AI Era
Collaboration zones, podcast studio and the AI Launchpad. Built for how modern teams collaborate.
MacBook + Full AI Stack from Day 1
On Day 1, your MacBook is loaded with the same AI tools professionals use. Not a shared lab. Your machine. Your workspace.
A Campus Built for the AI Era
AI Launchpad
The flagship build space - prototype products, run campaigns, and ship real work with AI.
3 rooms inside
ShowcaseAI Forum
Tiered seating for demo days, guest lectures, and pitches - where AI work gets shown and debated.
Smart Classrooms
Tech-enabled rooms built for collaboration, not rows of desks.
ArriveArrival Lounge
The first thing you see when you walk in - the moment a campus shows you what it is.
The People Behind Stride
After building and scaling a higher education company to 20,000+ students, Piyush started Stride because the curriculum most business schools teach was built for a world that no longer exists.
He built Vedam first, rethinking how computer science is taught. Then he saw the same gap in management education: AI is reshaping every career, but the classroom hasn't caught up. The management graduate the industry needs today can work with AI, interpret data, and make decisions at speed. That graduate simply isn't being produced by the current system. Stride is his answer: a business school rebuilt from scratch for the AI era.
After embedding AI into how real business teams worked and watching it transform their output, Anmol built Stride to bring that same fluency to undergraduates before they enter the workforce.
He spent nearly a decade leading Product and AI for a higher education company serving 20,000+ students. He built the learning systems, then reshaped how the company's own business teams analysed, decided, and delivered using AI. Teams that made the shift consistently outperformed those that didn't. Stride's curriculum is designed by someone who has already led this transformation and seen what happens when it works.
