A Landmark Launch in Riyadh
At the 2025 OIC Investment Forum, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation announced Ummah Ventures — a digital platform linking Muslim founders, investors, and accelerators.
Bridging 57 Nations
The platform, backed by the Islamic Development Bank, aims to unify startup support across member states, fostering innovation that aligns with Islamic ethics.
Empowering Cross-Border Growth
A founder in Lagos can now pitch to investors in Kuala Lumpur or find a mentor in Istanbul — breaking the isolation that often hinders Muslim entrepreneurs.
A Milestone for the Global Ummah Economy
Analysts call this a turning point for Muslim entrepreneurship — a move from fragmentation to global collaboration.
