GMW Debuts in Aus!

Join us in Sydney for an exciting weekend of innovation, collaboration and connections

Over four dynamic days, we’re bringing together visionaries, entrepreneurs, and creators from the Global Muslim community. GMW is all about inspiring and empowering Muslim changemakers through epic storytelling.

Set against the stunning backdrop of the Blue Mountains, this unique event offers a chance to step away from the daily grind and immerse yourself in a weekend (or just a day) of creative rejuvenation, forward-thinking discussions, and meaningful connections. Experience a blend of inspiring talks, hands-on workshops, and networking opportunities designed to empower you with the tools, ideas, and connections to drive impactful change.

Our program includes expert-led sessions with renowned speakers such as Dima Djaani, Dr. Mohamed Ghilan, Malaz Majanni, Peter Gould, Danny Mikati, Ashik Ahmed and so many more. Explore real-world tech applications, uncover how innovation is transforming industries, and take part in discussions to inspire action.

After two years and 35 events around the world including San Francisco, Tashkent, Doha and Kuala Lumpur to name a few, the GMW has arrived down under. This is not just an event; it’s a transformative experience. Meet like-hearted individuals, build meaningful connections, and be part of a community dedicated to shaping the future with innovation and impact.

Don't miss the chance to join us at the first-ever GMW Australia.
