WE R IRAN is a nonprofit, technocratic Think-to-Do organization founded by Iranian-American professionals and technocrats in Silicon Valley and Northern California.
We are engineers, entrepreneurs, academics, policy thinkers, subject-matter experts, and community leaders united by a shared belief: the people of Iran deserve to live in freedom, dignity, security, and democracy.
Rooted in the principles of liberty, secular governance, human rights, and the rule of law, we support Iran’s transition toward a secular democracy, one in which religion and state are separate and every citizen enjoys equal rights regardless of gender, ethnicity, belief, or political viewpoint.
But our work does not end with freedom.
We are preparing for what comes next.
WE R IRAN brings together expertise, ideas, technology, and global networks to help develop practical solutions for rebuilding a free, modern, and prosperous Iran.
Inspired by Iran’s historic Lion and Sun, we stand in solidarity with the people of Iran and their aspirations for freedom. We amplify their voices while mobilizing global expertise to help prepare for Iran’s post-authoritarian future.
Our work focuses on four priorities:
Democratic Transition: Supporting strategies and expertise for a peaceful transition to secular democracy.
Civil Society & Human Rights: Amplifying Iranian voices and supporting fundamental rights and freedoms.
Rebuilding & Prosperity: Developing practical frameworks for economic, technological, and institutional reconstruction.
Global Collaboration: Connecting Iran’s future with the expertise, capital, technology, and networks of the Iranian diaspora and international community.
Our mission is to transform expertise into action.
As a Think-to-Do organization, WE R IRAN brings together technocrats, entrepreneurs, academics, innovators, and subject-matter experts to develop practical solutions for Iran’s transition, reconstruction, and long-term prosperity.
Our work is designed to complement and support the Iran Prosperity Project (IPP) by translating knowledge, expertise, and innovative thinking into actionable initiatives.
We are preparing for Iran’s future today.
· Inspire and empower the next generation of Iranian entrepreneurs.
· Develop strategies for sustainable economic growth.
· Foster partnerships between Iranian and international innovators.
· Advance technology, investment, entrepreneurship, and private-sector development.
· Promote meritocracy, technocratic governance, and evidence-based policymaking.
· Connect Iranian expertise around the world with the future needs of Iran.
When Iran transitions to a free, representative, and accountable government, WE R IRAN will be ready to serve as a bridge connecting talent, capital, technology, ideas, and opportunity across borders.
We envision a free, secular, democratic, and prosperous Iran globally connected, economically dynamic, technologically advanced, and governed by competence, merit, and the rule of law.
We envision an Iran where innovation replaces isolation, opportunity replaces restriction, and meritocracy and expertise help drive national progress.
A country where its extraordinary human capital can finally flourish.
The future of Iran will not simply be rebuilt. It will be reimagined.
