Technology is changing how societies learn, trade, govern, communicate and believe.
The Ummah isn't standing on the sidelines anymore. We're building.
Because we believe the future is a trust that we need to take care of for the generations to come.
Ummah Tech is where the people building that future find each other. A gathering of Muslim founders, technologists, creatives, researchers and leaders committed to shaping technology with faith, purpose and long-term responsibility at its centre.
Because great civilizations were never built in isolation.
Our Mission
Ummah Tech is a non-profit organization growing a thriving community of Muslim technologists across South Africa.
Guided by the Qur'anic principle:
"Help one another in goodness and piety." (Surah Al-Ma'idah 5:2)
We exist to encourage our community to build technology for the benefit of humanity.
