Muslamic Makers West Yorkshire: Chapter Launch

Who we are

Muslamic Makers helps the next generation of Muslim changemakers level up across the tech industry and beyond.

We started life as a monthly meetup in 2016 in London which gave Muslims a safe space to share ideas, network and collaborate. We focus on upskilling the community through events, mentorship, programmes, and scholarships. We’ve expanded our events to Manchester, Boston, USA and Toronto, Canada! Now the local community in West Yorkshire wants to launch their series of events, so come along and learn more about us!
