PRISM - A Gathering of 40 Souls

A sanctuary for Muslim leaders to pause, realign, and emerge renewed.

Upcoming PRISM Gathering: Houston, TX (Jan 9–11, 2026)

The Essence

A prism does not generate light. It reveals it. When light enters, it refracts, separating what appeared singular into its full spectrum of color, depth and dimension. It clarifies what was always there.

PRISM was built for this purpose.

You arrive carrying your own light: years of leadership, sacrifice, ambition, faith and questions. Through intentional reflection, honest dialogue and shared wisdom, PRISM helps you rediscover the full spectrum of your leadership across personal, professional and spiritual dimensions.

In this sanctuary, you step away from the noise. You reconnect with your calling. You realign your leadership to reflect the whole of who you are.

The PRISM Experience

Private Keynote Conversations

Engage with respected business, academic and spiritual leaders offering frameworks for sustainable leadership.

Peer Dialogue and Team Building

Participate in exercises designed to cultivate deep connections and build a trusted peer circle.

Personal Reflection Time

Unhurried moments of solitude allow space to reflect, journal and realign your leadership journey.

Strategic Planning Workshops

Work through your personal and professional goals using guided frameworks, leaving with a tangible plan for the year ahead.

Behavioral and Cognitive Assessments

Receive a leadership diagnostic that provides deep self-awareness and helps you better understand your natural strengths and growth opportunities.

Who PRISM Is For

PRISM welcomes Muslim leaders who stand at the intersection of business excellence, personal growth and global impact. Participants include:

High-growth Muslim entrepreneurs scaling companies across diverse sectors

Corporate executives with global or regional leadership responsibilities

Family business owners navigating governance, succession and legacy

Capital allocators and investors deploying capital for growth and impact

Muslim ecosystem builders advancing business and entrepreneurship globally

Tangible Outcomes

PRISM is designed to deliver not just clarity, but lasting value.

Cross-market collaboration opportunities across AMCOB regions such as the United States, Canada, Gulf, United Kingdom and beyond

A written twelve-month strategic roadmap for personal and professional leadership

Heightened self-awareness through the use of psychometric tools

Trusted peer relationships that expand across industries and markets

New insights on integrating faith, business and personal leadership at the highest levels

Private conversations that open doors to business opportunities, partnerships, or cross-border collaborations

A renewed sense of calling with the energy and confidence to lead with clarity

The PRISM Ethos

Participation in PRISM, as with all AMCOB experiences, reflects a commitment to shared values that define both who we are and who we aspire to be.

Uphold human rights and global justice

Demonstrate ethical business practices

Be free from controversial political lobbying

Build a workplace culture rooted in respect, inclusion and belonging

Support economic empowerment and social responsibility

Align with AMCOB’s mission to strengthen Muslim entrepreneurship globally

Operate transparently and reputably

This gathering is a space of trust built on shared principles, mutual respect and global responsibility. You arrive as light. You leave illuminated.

Past Event – PRISM Chicago 2025 | A Defining Gathering

A gathering that set the tone

In July 2025, PRISM gathered for the first time in Chicago; a quiet, intentional circle of forty Muslim founders, investors, and builders. Over three unhurried days, we stepped out of the noise to reflect, reconnect, and realign with what truly matters. The conversations ran deep, the stillness carried weight, and the sense of shared purpose was unmistakable. One we’ll return to again and again.

What an inspiring and energizing weekend retreat! A big shoutout and heartfelt thank you to Kashif Zubair for organizing such a meaningful event. From the elegantly delivered talks to the dynamic, interactive sessions, every moment was packed with insight and impact. I walked away with countless practical takeaways and a renewed sense of purpose. Although I’m no longer a practicing physician and don’t run an operating business, I consider it a true blessing from Allah to have the time, experience, and desire to give back. As a serial healthcare entrepreneur, I’m always open and available to support in any way I can—whether it’s brainstorming ideas, offering suggestions, or simply being a sounding board. Please don’t hesitate to reach out—I’d be honored to be of service. Once again, thank you Kashif, for your vision and dedication. Keep up the amazing work!

I believe everyone will agree that this weekend was a great experience. With about 35+ years of going to such events, I can’t think of anything I’ve been to that even comes close. For me, the key things are (1) the quality of new relationships I’ve been blessed to now have, and (2) the quality of personal growth I’ve had across 3 days from very thought provoking conversations and program content. That’s all benefit to me, but the things I’m most excited about from this event are the multiple opportunities in which I can hopefully help my fellow Muslims iA. That’s exactly why I joined AMCOB — to interact with like-minded Muslim leaders and find opportunities to have positive impact within our Ummah. As has been said multiple times, this would not be possible without @⁨Kashif Zubair⁩. Thank you, sir!

Thank You!!🙏 Grateful for an Incredible Experience in Chicago. I want to thank everyone for the incredibly meaningful time. Meeting each of you and learning about your backgrounds truly highlighted the caliber of people that make AMCOB so special. These past few days were some of the most fulfilling I’ve had MA, The Barakah Effect was real! I hope to define my "why" more clearly now, and I’ll definitely be reaching out to many of you for your continued guidance and insight. The moments we shared and the friendships we formed are ones I’ll cherish forever. A big thank you to @⁨Kashif Zubair⁩ for organizing such a beautiful and inspiring event. Looking forward to staying in touch and meeting again soon, wherever that may be!

Asalaam Alaykum. AlhumdALLAH, this weekend left me thinking more about purpose than I have for a while. I appreciated the honesty in the room and all the remarkable presentations. Big thanks to Kashif. You pulled together a group of people who actually care - and it showed. Jazzak ALLAH khair.

This retreat exceeded my expectations. The whole flow of the program was well thought out and effective, but most of all, the quality of the people present, as well as their diversity (in terms of where they are at in their businesses and lives), was exceptional. This was exactly what I needed, and I felt like I both benefited and gave benefit in profound ways.
