As a young entrepreneur, such events are of great value to me as they help build my skills and business alike. As is the case in all fields or professions, all parties stand to gain tremendously by working and interacting with each other. I believe this event shall help extend my social-business network and build relationships with others in similar fields.
I hope to meet and interact with like minds that share similar interests of bettering our Ugandan IT community. I do also anticipate to take away from this event, the knowledge of current leaps in the Ugandan technological community that I may not already be aware of.

The organization endeavours to promote the growth of a vibrant, active, unified open-source community by offering education, discussion, and support through its website, mailing-list, online chat-room, and monthly events.
