A vector leptoquark at the TeV scale, mostly coupled to the fermions of the third generation, is the preferred option to explain the hints of lepton flavor universality violation in the decays of B-mesons. It seems interesting to assume that this leptoquark belongs to the same beyond the Standard Model sector that solves the hierarchy problem, since the third generation of fermions play the leading role in the instability of the Higgs potential. We present a composite Grand Unified Theory with resonances at the TeV that contains the required vector leptoquark and develops the Higgs as a pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson. We show that anarchic partial compositeness of the Standard Model fermions can accommodate the couplings of Left-handed currents required by the B-anomalies, predicting very small couplings to the Right-handed currents without any additional hypothesis. By making use of an effective theory description of the strong dynamics, in terms of weakly coupled resonances, we are able to compute the corrections to B-physics, as well as the one-loop potential for the pseudo Nambu-Goldstone bosons. The theory has a rich phenomenology and a candidate for dark matter.
