Social Impact & Investment

My retirement plan is to create a socially focused micro Venture Capital (VC) Fund with $10 million for scaling up Ugandan digital businesses and creating real impact in peoples’ lives.

The Digital Economy

I am passionate about working with innovators, investors, governments and corporate leaders on digital economy strategies and maximizing the value of e-Commerce business models and digital transformation.
