Enhanced Student Experiences to Build the Leaders of Tomorow

Bringing Real-World Strategy into the MBA Classroom and University Life.
Two Powerful Programmes; One Impactful Outcome

The Weave’s Business Planning Week and iTeams programmes transform academic learning into commercial action. Developed and delivered in close partnership with leading business schools, these immersive, high-impact modules place MBA students at the heart of real-world challenges, where strategy must meet execution, and leadership is tested under pressure.

“The students tackled real M&A scenarios, stepped into the shoes of C-suite leaders, and faced the very human challenges of business decision-making. The learning was deep, collaborative, and so engaging.”
Kate Everett, CEO, TWI & MBA Participant

Students become close friends at the Business Planning Week

We build it.

Whether simulating high-stakes mergers and acquisitions or tackling live innovation briefs from scaling businesses, students emerge with sharper commercial instincts, deeper collaboration skills, and the kind of confidence that only comes from doing, not just learning.

We deliver it.

“The Weave produced a superb, well organised and high-quality module for the Essex MBA on time and on budget. Business Planning Week is one of our flagship activities of the year, and from the outset I was reassured by The Weave’s professional, thorough approach to planning and design. The delivery was seamless, impressive and of outstanding value to our MBAs. I look forward to doing more business with The Weave and recommend them to other potential customers.”
Dr James Fowler, MBA Director, University of Essex

Students getting the most out of iTeams

The students love it.

From investor pitch simulations and live negotiation events, to making bold decisions in uncertain data environments, participants called the programme “unforgettable,” “immersive,” and “the closest you can get to real-world business without a boardroom.”

“A truly collaborative and challenging experience. This wasn’t just about numbers and strategy—it tested our people skills, negotiation, stakeholder management, and decision-making under pressure. A big thank you to The Weave team for such a professionally delivered, immersive module.”
Dinindu Prabhash, MBA Candidate
