BELOBABA partners with Skyline University College

Sharjah, UAE – May 7, 2025 – In a major boost for fintech education in the region, BELOBABA has partnered with Skyline University College to launch the university’s first Master of Financial Technology program. Program will bring Fintech leading partners like VISA as an effort to making this a powerful three-way collaboration that brings real-world expertise into the classroom.

The MoU was signed in early May at Skyline University College. The ceremony took place on campus and brought together key names: Prof. Mohammad In’airat, Vice Chancellor of Skyline, BELOBABA’s founder and chairman, Mr. Lluís Mas and Pau Roig, CEO of BELOBABA.

For BELOBABA, this isn’t just about expanding into a new region—it’s highly progressive on educational and industrial level. Lluís Mas has always believed that education should go hand in hand with innovation. Years ago, he helped launch one of the first blockchain education hubs in Estonia. Now, this latest partnership brings that same spirit of learning and growth to the UAE and increases the scope of growth for both the Skyline University College and BELOBABA.

Skyline’s new Master’s in Fintech is not just a typical classroom course. It’s built to teach hands-on skills that matter in the real world—like blockchain, coding, finance systems, and how digital money moves through the system. But what really makes the program stand out is the on-campus Fintech lab. It’s a space where students from different backgrounds, business, tech, and finance, can actually build and test idestas together. The goal is to learn by doing – experiential learning in Fintech lab is a step forward towards innovation in this field.

Moreover, this is part of Skyline’s bigger plan to prepare students for jobs that are changing fast. The idea isn’t just to teach concepts. It’s to make sure students walk out ready for the real world, especially in industries where digital finance is growing fast.

That’s where BELOBABA comes in. With years of experience in crypto and DeFi, they are not just adding their name to the program. They’re helping decide what actually gets taught—making sure students learn what the market really needs today. The partnership also helps build a formal structure around fintech education in the region.

Students will get a broader view of the global fintech landscape—learning not just what’s happening now, but where things are headed.
