This decade, the world's Muslim population rose sharply. Today, Muslim population of the world has reached more than 1.5 billion people. This amount stated that 23% of world population embraced the religion of Islam. However although the Muslim population has increased significantly, the potential for Muslims themselves have not been maximized. Economic sectors, technology, and science is still held by non-Islamic. To maximize the potential of the Muslim ummah, we need a place to maximize it. Because of that, Muslim innovation school can be a solution to maximize Muslim potential especially young Muslim potential. The purposes of this Muslim innovation school are to sharpen young Muslim potential, to increase the amount of innovator, and to collect every generation of young Muslims who are experts in the,field of technology, science and economics to gather in one place to develop their ideas and expand their network across the Muslim world.
