Hey
natyomatcha,
I have a very similar profile to you (from the middle east and similar work experience) and I asked myself similar questions not so long ago.
1- Do you care about the cost of the MBA or the length of the MBA?If you do, money you will use in the MBA could be used for launching your company so I would take that into account. Also, if you're unsure of what you want to do a 2 years programme will give you more time to try things out.
2- What type of business do you think of launching?I had a very good convo with alumni from LBS and Cambridge and they made a very good point that in LBS you have better opportunities if you want to launch a "business service" while Cambridge will give you more exposure to deeptech opportunities because you will be able to interact with researchers in other fields than business.
Obviously you can still do a deeptech business from LBS and vice versa if you work really hard.
Finally, Cambridge will allow you to network with more people outside the business sphere and less typical business profiles while LBS will primarly expose you to very competitive business profiles.
3- When do you want to launch something and where?Cambridge has a high number of people starting a business immediately while LBS seems to have a good amount of alumni starting a business after they worked for a few years.
From what I found online, I think LBS has a better presence in the Middle East (Dubai etc.). You'll still find Cambridge graduates but just not in the same numbers.
One small thing to add, the LBS Entrepreneurship Summer School is also something you can apply to without doing the MBA.
Finally, the best question that helped me was to decide where would I be more inspired. So I will ask you the same, where do you think you will be more inspired and motivated to start a business?
Happy to get on a call with you just send me a private message.
