contents In this paper, we initiate the study of algebraic K-theory for non-commutative $Γ$-semirings, extending the classical constructions of Grothendieck and Bass to this setting. We first establish the categorical foundations by constructing the category of finitely generated projective bi-$Γ$-modules over a non-commutative $Γ$-semiring $T$. We prove that this category admits an exact structure, allowing for the definition of the Grothendieck group $K_0^Γ(T)$. Furthermore, we develop the theory of the Whitehead group $K_1^Γ(T)$ using elementary matrices and the Steinberg relations in the non-commutative $Γ$-semiring context. We establish the fundamental exact sequences linking $K_0$ and $K_1$ and provide explicit calculations for specific classes of non-commutative $Γ$-semirings. This work lays the algebraic groundwork for future studies on higher K-theory spectra.
