Who We Are
Extrapreneurs is a UAE-based social innovation platform designed to empower changemakers to turn their ideas into action. We believe that the good in humanity is abundant, but many individuals and organizations feel powerless to change the status quo because they lack direction, collaboration, and support.
We are committed to creating a space where social innovators can access the essential components of social innovation, enabling them to drive meaningful, sustainable, and scalable impact. At Extrapreneurs, we foster collaboration, provide strategic guidance, and connect innovators with the resources they need to bring their visions to life.
Our approach is grounded in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), ensuring that each project and initiative contributes to global progress and addresses the world’s most pressing challenges, such as poverty, education, climate change, and equality. We believe that social innovation can drive economic growth while creating positive societal impact, combining profitability with responsibility.
Our mission is to provide a collaborative platform that bridges the gap between passion and action. By breaking down the barriers to social innovation, we empower changemakers to develop innovative solutions that are both financially viable and socially rewarding.
We focus on building innovative models that create value for society while also being profitable for stakeholders. Our platform supports projects that can generate economic opportunities, create jobs, and contribute to sustainable development—all while aligning with the SDGs to create systemic change.
Our Mission
Our Vision
We envision a world where everyone becomes a changemaker, starting with the UAE. Our goal is to drive systemic transformation by fostering collaboration, providing strategic guidance, and connecting innovators with the right resources to solve today’s most complex challenges.
At Extrapreneurs, we aim to empower changemakers to create solutions that contribute to the SDGs. Through collaboration, technology, and innovative business models, we help turn great ideas into actionable, scalable solutions that address environmental, social, and economic issues, while generating profits that can be reinvested to maximize social impact.
Why the UAE?
Extrapreneurs is starting in the UAE because we believe that global social change at scale is challenging due to the cultural, organizational, and governance complexities that vary across regions. While our model is scalable, we want to first leverage our extensive local knowledge to address the UAE’s unique challenges. By focusing on the UAE, we can develop customized solutions that align with the country’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and create measurable, sustainable impact.
Once we establish a proven model locally, we plan to scale globally, adapting our solutions to different cultural and governance contexts as we expand. This approach ensures that we not only achieve lasting social change but also set the foundation for scalable, impactful innovation on a global scale.
