About
Ivana Brnovic Ogbu is a former United Nations Sustainability Specialist turned impact entrepreneur, working at the forefront of education and innovation. A three-time founder across education and technology, she is driven by one mission: to connect young people to real innovation ecosystems — and prepare them to contribute meaningfully in a rapidly evolving world.
Based in Dubai, she works with schools and global partners to bring real-world problem-solving, systems thinking, and innovation into education — moving beyond traditional models toward learning that builds agency, creativity, and impact.
She is the author of a children's book series introducing systems thinking and sustainable development to students aged 6–11, and the founder of TryNex — where students work on real startup challenges, collaborate with founders, and build projects that translate into real opportunities, from portfolios to internships.
Her work sits at the intersection of sustainability, education transformation, and conscious leadership. She has spoken at the Forbes Middle East Sustainability Leaders Summit and TEDx, calling for a fundamental shift in education — from knowledge consumption to real-world creation and contribution.

TryNex Learning is where students stop preparing for the future — and start building it. Through real startup challenges and real-world problem-solving, students don't just learn skills — they learn how to think, create, and contribute in environments that actually matter. This isn't a class. It's a launchpad. A space where students become innovators, work alongside founders, and step into real opportunities — from projects to internships — by creating value, not just credentials. In the process who they experience themselves to be, transforms.
We are proudly based in Dubai, UAE — where innovation, creativity, and sustainability education converge. We are delivering our Beta Pilot Program (March–July 2026) in collaboration with select schools across the UAE, with expansion already underway.
Our programs are designed for Ages 14–19: Real-world innovation, entrepreneurial mindset and systems thinking. Mentorship and work shadow placements/internships.
We're currently onboarding partner schools for our Beta Pilot Program. If you're a school leader, teacher, or education innovator interested in bringing TryNex to your students, reach out by email or book a discovery call with our team. Custom packages and onboarding support are available. Email: ivana@trynexglobal.com WhatsApp: +971 557 245 833
