About LAB
TWO CHALLENGES. ONE MISSION.
Leadership
Leadership is a major challenge affecting families, businesses, institutions and societies. The quality of leadership shapes decisions, institutions and nations.
Access to practical business education
Practical business education is often financially inaccessible to aspiring entrepreneurs. Many people are eager to learn but cannot afford the education, training or mentorship they want.
LAB Academy seeks to make practical knowledge more accessible so people can think better, make informed decisions, solve problems and create value.
To make practical leadership and business education freely accessible, equipping people with the knowledge, skills and thinking needed to grow their careers, build sustainable businesses, lead effectively and contribute meaningfully to society.
A world where access to practical knowledge enables more people to become effective leaders, build successful businesses and create lasting value—from their own lives and families to their communities, nations and the world.
The Founder’s Story
I WANTED TO LEARN BUSINESS. I COULDN’T AFFORD ALL THE EDUCATION I NEEDED.
When Miracle Seriki began his entrepreneurial journey, he wanted both formal and informal business education—but could not afford all the education he wanted.
So he learned through mistakes, pain, setbacks and failures.
Those experiences helped shape his conviction that more people should have access to practical business and leadership education—and helped inspire LAB Academy: a free, open learning initiative designed to make practical leadership and business knowledge more accessible.
LAB Academy is built on the conviction that learning should be accessible, leadership should be developed, and knowledge should lead to action.
