“We’re thrilled to top the list of finalists. Nexford is born different: a tech startup with all the credentials of a university. The challenges that we’re solving have been debated for a decade. We can’t wait to bring our story to the stage in San Diego in March,” said Fadl Al Tarzi, Founder and CEO, Nexford University.
