Muzz company profile

Muslims don’t date - they marry. Muzz is where Muslims meet. We are the world's biggest Muslim dating app, boasting over 8 million members and over 400,000 successes, Muzz is making a real difference in the huge yet untapped global Muslim demographic. Shahzad Younas (London, UK) is the founder and CEO of Muzz. Previously a Vice President in Equity Portfolio Trading at investment bank Morgan Stanley for 9 years, Shahzad quit his career to fully focus on building a high quality mobile app to help Muslims around the world to find their perfect marriage partner. Backed with a total of $9M investment (Seed and Series A) from a range of Silicon Valley and global investors, headquartered in Aldgate, London, and boasting a fast growing 65+ strong global team, Muzz is transforming how Muslims meet and marry. Muzz was the first Muslim centric startup ever to be backed by Y Combinator (Summer 2017) - the prestigious Silicon Valley based accelerator behind Airbnb/Dropbox/Stripe, and has been featured on the BBC, The Times, The Evening Standard, The Financial Times, The New York Times, CNN, MensHealth, and TechCrunch amongst many others.
