THE BIG PICTURE
Gunpowder. The astrolabe. The printing press. The steam engine. Electricity. The internet.
Artificial intelligence.
THE MAIN
IDEA
Every era is defined by a breakthrough so transformative that it redraws economies, restructures industries, and shifts global power. AI is that breakthrough for our time.
The question is not whether AI will reshape the world—it already is. The question is: will Muslim leaders shape AI?
Habibi Tech Summit 2025 is where that conversation begins.
This is not just a tech conference. This is a call to action for the decision-makers—the financiers, policymakers, healthcare leaders, legal experts, and industry executives who will determine whether Muslims lead in AI or remain spectators.
WHAT TO EXPECT
🚀 Industry Tracks:
AI’s impact on Finance, Law, Healthcare, and Marketing, equipping leaders with strategies to implement AI now.
📢 Unifying Keynotes:

AI is Here. The Time to Lead is Now.
