“Part of our offering is the independence dinner, entertainment and business breakfast that will feature various vendors and a live broadcast by BBS television and moderated by Solomon Serwanjja.” Mayanja further explains.
A new Uganda Community Sacco will be launched, benchmarking on Kenyans who have already amassed an impressive $4m sacco established through which they have been able to acquire various properties in Kenya. They also intend to promote life insurance and the purchase of Treasury bonds at the Central bank through some of the invited speakers and the promotion of Tourism/Trade/Investment, Real Estate, Momo pay, among others.
The event, Mayanja notes, is open to all, especially those of African Descent. “However, we want to see our country and business ideas promoted beyond Uganda.”
The event is organized in New England because that is home to the largest concentration of Ugandans in the northeast. The theme is Independence Day and they hope to celebrate Uganda’s heritage heritage through music, fashion, dance, food and culture.
Key government institutions have been invited to attend, especially those tasked with Tourism and Investment. The group is non-political and promotes business and networking opportunities.
