The Center for Global Muslim Life has named three organizations based in the Twin Cities to its list of Top 100 Innovative Global Muslim Startups to Watch in 2022.
The San Diego-based nonprofit, which announced the list on Tuesday, said the list is about changing the narratives around Muslims.
“We’re so consumed with defining what we’re not, there’s very little articulating what we actually are, what our vision is for the world, what the vision is for our future,” said Mustafa Dustin Craun, founding executive director of CGML.
The CGML selected companies based on six criteria including diversity, their focus on Muslim consumers and their social and spiritual impact.
