Market Design
For over 1,000 years, the Ummah understood a fundamental truth: the dynamic relationship between the Masjid and the Market fuels community prosperity.
When the Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w) arrived in Medina, he didn't just build a place of worship; he established a Market. He knew that Markets are the gateways to economic participation, wrapped in beautiful cultural expressions, and the building blocks of future economies.
Today, the global Muslim Market is projected at $8.3 trillion, and the USA/Canada Market is at $186 billion. The African American Muslim Market is 84 billion, a part of the 2.1 trillion found in the African American community. The question is: Will our Masjids be smart enough to capture the Market that is technically already theirs?
Why Market Design?
The Market created by Prophet (s.a.w) in Medina demonstrated to the Muslim Ummah how to empower a community economically. However, today’s world presents new challenges and also provides new innovative approaches we can use. The combination of design thinking, customer storytelling, and whiteboard technology provides a format for community collaboration on a scale that was not possible a decade ago. These new tools allow us to design future markets that become everyone's opportunity.
By designing Markets together, we can ensure they are fair and just, and any future market initiatives can be transparent and remain an opportunity for everyone. More importantly, designing markets allows us to collaborate and put forth the best ideas to seize our Market and beyond.
To accomplish this, The Design Tree focuses on three distinct areas.
The Design Tree:
Market Design: Strategy sessions that allow us to co-create future Markets designed to accelerate our businesses.
Business Architecture: Designing businesses within the market in mind for long-term business growth and development.
A.I.-Enhanced Workflows: Integrating custom artificial intelligence systems to automate the business within the market we design.
