I’m honored to have participated in the Official Unveiling of the Uganda ICT Intellectual Property (IP) Guidelines, launched by the Ministry of ICT & National Guidance, in partnership with JICA and URSB.
This initiative marks a significant milestone in protecting creators' rights and accelerating innovation within the ICT sector. The guidelines are built upon five transformative objectives:
🔹 Igniting Innovation
🔹 Promoting Best Practices
🔹 Facilitating Shared Infrastructure
🔹 Safeguarding IP Rights
🔹 Unlocking Commercialization
These IP Guidelines are designed to support all innovators and developers building solutions for both the government and the public, covering the entire IP value chain — from ideation to commercialization.
By empowering innovators with the tools and knowledge to protect their intellectual assets, Uganda is investing in its digital future and strengthening its innovation ecosystem. 🌍💡
A big thank you to all the partners and stakeholders who made this possible. Let’s continue to champion innovation, protection, and progress.
