About the Convention:
One of the main aims of the Convention is to encourage investors to expand their current businesses to the East African region, or to start new ventures between the UK and Uganda in both directions.
The conference will address the essential need to know topics most prevalent to East Africa (Uganda), such as opportunities within the priority sectors; infrastructure development, Power & Energy, Health-care, Agriculture & Agri-business, Real Estate, tourism, increasing intra-regional trade and developing risk mitigation strategies through collaborations and private equity, and VC finance access.
The Forum will also enable investors to talk directly with senior Government officials and business leaders on how to use Uganda as a hub to access an expanding market of nearly 374m consumers in the EAC Common Market and Southern African Development Community (SADC) Market.
I therefore urge you to make every effort to participate in this important event and I look forward to meeting you in London on the day and discover more about our exhibitors.
