About the Author

Mikel Amigot is a Spanish-American technology entrepreneur, software architect, and visionary in Artificial Intelligence for Higher Education. As the CEO of ibl.ai, he has dedicated his career to designing intelligent systems that empower universities and schools to teach, learn, conduct research, and operate more effectively in the age of AI.

Over the past decade, Amigot has worked alongside university presidents, provosts, CIOs, faculty members, instructional designers, and technology leaders to develop AI platforms that enhance every aspect of the academic enterprise—from personalized learning and student success to institutional analytics, administrative automation, and autonomous AI agents.

His work is driven by a simple belief: Artificial Intelligence should amplify human potential, not replace it. Rather than viewing AI as another educational technology, he sees it as the foundation for a new generation of institutions that are more personalized, more adaptive, more accessible, and better equipped to fulfill higher education’s enduring mission.

In The AI-Native University, Amigot introduces a comprehensive framework for redesigning colleges and universities around AI as a foundational institutional capability. Drawing on years of experience building AI platforms for higher education, he presents a practical blueprint for leaders seeking to prepare their institutions for the decades ahead.

Beyond technology, Amigot is passionate about the intersection of education, leadership, ethics, Christianity, and innovation. His mission is to help institutions harness artificial intelligence responsibly while preserving the human relationships, intellectual curiosity, and pursuit of knowledge and wisdom that define the university.

The AI-Native University is the first in a series of works exploring how AI will transform education, organizations, and society.
