Muslamic Makers is a meetup and community to get Muslim makers (involved in tech startups, design and development) together to discuss and share their thinking and work. We exist because there is huge (but often hidden) talent in the Muslim community which lacks a space to network, inspire and showcase their work.

Ultimately our goal is to help grow the Muslim tech startup community, nurturing more confidence and impact in the startup scene. To help diversify the startup world whilst also encouraging more Muslims to work in diverse environments being proud of who they are and respecting other people’s views. Muslamic Makers is not just for Muslims, anyone can come along to any of our events and we encourage it to help build more dialogue and generally develop more awesome things in tech and business.

Why?

There is a shortage of minority groups involved in and leading the way in creative, tech startup, social enterprise, arts and making industries. We want to see more collaboration, exploration and general creative technological awesomeness coming from the Muslim community and we think this is a way to kickstart that. As more Muslims get involved in these spaces we are looking to create a fresh space for collaboration, networking and general awesomeness.

What do we do?

We organise events with the mission of bringing more Muslim techies together in a creative, “halal” space which is open to all to attend.

In Conversation – Our monthly fireside chat style talks with leading entrepreneurs.

Hackathons – our one day hack events geared around inspiring and skill learning.

Workshops – our specific skill sessions with leading talent teaching everything from UX to JavaScript frameworks.

Pitch it – An opportunity for people to pitch their side projects/ideas and get feedback.

Slack channel – we have a growing global community channel where people can talk about ideas, meet their future CTOs and CEOs and generally share their work.
