Faith X Founders: Dhaka Connect
Global Muslim Entrepreneurs (GME) Network is a growing global movement of Muslim founders, creatives, and visionaries committed to building businesses with purpose, ethics, and barakah.
We believe entrepreneurship is a form of ibadah when done with sincerity, halal income, and community impact in mind. GME empowers Muslim entrepreneurs to rise, connect, and lead without compromising their faith.
Faith x Founders: Dhaka Connect is more than an event, it’s the beginning of a deeper conversation.
We’re creating a space for Muslim entrepreneurs in Bangladesh to come together, not just to network but to reflect, collaborate, and grow with like-hearted souls.
We are collecting a registration fee of ৳299/- to help cover the event’s basic costs (venue, refreshments, materials). Your contribution helps us host this gathering with ihsaan (excellence).
