We hosted @Allen_Kagina, Chairperson of the @TVETCouncilUg and Board Member of the @mtnfoundationug, at the National ICT Innovation Hub, Nakawa. Her visit focused on assessing the impact of the MTN ACE Programme, supported by @mtnug and implemented by @CenteTech. The initiative continues to strengthen digital skills and foster innovation across Uganda. A key highlight was her interaction with the innovators in the labs, where young people are applying industry-relevant digital skills to build solutions, create opportunities, and shape their futures This engagement reinforces the value of strong industry–government partnerships in advancing Uganda’s digital transformation.

Today, we hosted 130 students from @UCUniversity pursuing Computer Science, Information Technology, and Data Science for a student pitching session. The students took to the floor, pitching innovative technology ideas to a panel of external judges and walking away with the kind of feedback that turns good ideas into great ones. Beyond the pitches, the session also gave them a front-row seat to the innovation ecosystem and a tour of the Innovation Hub, where they interacted with different innovators.

New month. Fresh ideas. Same unstoppable energy. March is your reminder that big things don’t start perfect; they start with one bold idea, one line of code, and one decision to try. So go ahead… build boldly, test fearlessly, and innovate like the future is watching (because it is 😉) #HelloMarch #BuildBoldly #InnovationStartsHere
