UmmahWide- A Startup worth looking

[Light Within Me]

Have any of you viewed this - https://ummahwide.com/

Please share your views.

According to me -

1. Tech-wise its good.

2. But when it comes to Pure Islam (sure they don't have it), its too open!

They have a startup list too run by Muslims (sunni-wahhabi muslims)

My Question is Are there any good shia-startups around the globe? Or are we just lagging behind? or We don't need it?  (Chasing the materialistic world isn't our passion)

There's a couple of like Tahafunder but we probably need more. The more Shia startups, the stronger our voice is.

Assalam o alaikum brother. Having startups is not the core issue. Many Shias can have startups or small businesses of their own scattered.  The key problem lies in collaboration. There are so many shias around the globe who have resources, Talent to invest in, A give back kind of attitude. Most of them want to serve Ahlulbayt(a.s). If people around the world could connect and share their ideas and resources then InshaAllah we can become great in solving so many problems (cause there are many).

What do you think, How can we solve this problem??

What I think is to have a portal like "UmmahWide" to engage every shia interested in starting up.

People with skills, Financial support, Contacts and etc can join the platform.

Further we can have an open forum where novices could come and take insights on how to develop certain skills so that we could become better as whole.

Sounds like a start and something sorely needed for Shias, I agree with you strongly. I think part of the solution is for communities, Shia communities to spread out a bit, don't stay huddled in major cities like New York, Toronto and Detroit, move out and establish communities like where I live.

I live in the middle of nowhere and it's quite isolating for the likes of me, I often find myself wishing that I could be a part of Muslim community, while it is off-topic, maybe if we had a "Ummahwide" for Shias; It would alleviate such issues brothers and sisters such as myself face.

"It's about taking advantage of the opportunities you have right now, and right now we're in a position where you call somebody and they're willing to pick up and take the call because they're ready to serve, you have to take advantage of that and have a chance to capitalize on your ideas."

Shall we engage in building such platform and connecting people and have some upliftment of our community as a whole.

Atleast for the young minds who have the potential to disrupt.

Remember great ideas always were started from mere a spark sitting in the shadows.

If you know some people over here (cause I'm new) who can help in building the portal and the community please join hands and lets begin!
