I visited Dei Pharma, a large pharmaceutical and biotech facility located in Matugga along Kampala-Gulu highway. Pleased to learn that the facility sitting on 250 acres intends to produce essential drugs, vaccines, and advanced biological treatments locally, something that will save the country from dependency on imported drugs. #Uganda currently imports more than 85 percent of its medicines. The company is starting with vaccine production, targeting diseases that have long defined public health priorities in Africa. These include polio, measles, tuberculosis, and other immunizable conditions historically referred to as the six killer diseases. In particular, I am excited to learn that the 1.1 billion dollar facility, plans to manufacture affordable treatments for sickle cell disease, cancers, and other conditions that affect us and yet remain largely untreated due to cost barriers. For example, the gene therapies which are currently available in developed countries that cost millions of dollars per dose, placing them far beyond the reach of most patients here. The facility has also established, in Namasagali, a 600-acre cassava processing plant that produces pharmaceutical-grade starch, glucose, maltose, and fructose, all of which are critical inputs in drug and vaccine manufacturing.

@OrtegaTalks None that I can find. Several at Citi, in Canary Wharf at Goldman et al. But Jane Street seems quite quant heavy and a lot of our folks are more finance/deals.

Child labor: asking the kids to carry groceries from car to pantry as I sit and watch lazily. What a concept

It's hard to stay humble when you're one of the only five or six people on the planet who know how to use a semicolon.

@Mlandeli_Ndlela @JoeyK_EDA @ny_emman They face strong competition from QR and Ethiopian in those markets so no surprise they scale down. Key transit cities for those travelers are Dubai and Guangzhou, no need to layover in Istanbul.
