Course Overview

The BSc in Global Entrepreneurship at the London School of International Business and Management (LSIBM) is a three-year UK honours degree inside the International Business & Trade faculty, written for students targeting international-founder, cross-border BD and startup-adviser careers. It combines the core business curriculum with a full global-entrepreneurship specialism — cross-border venture design, international fundraising, distributor and channel setup, and running a small team across time zones.

You will run your own venture through the degree, complete a startup or accelerator placement in year two, and produce a dissertation defended in front of a working UK angel or international venture partner. The BSc in Global Entrepreneurship is available on-campus in central London, fully online with UK / APAC cohort calls, and by distance learning from 2026.
