Megatrend University

Megatrend International Expert Consortium Limited, London, is a consulting-educational organization founded in 1980, which was the foundation for developing the educational group “Megatrend” in Serbia. The first institution in this system was Megatrend Business School in Belgrade, founded in 1989. This school soon became the founder of all other institutions within the academic community. Later chartered colleges and schools were turned primarily towards applied economics and management, and then they conquered other scientific and artistic fields. Megatrend University has set the highest standards of education in the region for 26 years, while at the center of all its endeavors are the students. Based on the council’s decision of Megatrend University on 15th April 2015, Megatrend University changed its name to John Naisbitt University.
