Details

Join us for a conversation with two Muslim founders, Naeem Raza and Zulki Khan. Naeem founded Sunflower Systems in 1992 and led it to an acquisition in 2019. He’s now a VC and angel investor. Zulki founded Nexlogic Technologies in 1995 and led it to an acquisition in 2021. He’s now a philanthropist and angel investor. They’ll be sharing key insights on what it’s like to start and run a business as a Muslim in the U.S., what it’s like to exit, and what life after being a founder looks like.

Moderated by current Stern Student Saad Khan while Zulki and Naeem will join us through Zoom. KMC 2-80 is reserved for people who want to join in person.
