Following successful sessions in Gulu, Jinja, Masaka, and Mbarara, the Kampala edition marks the grand finale of a nationwide series designed to empower Uganda’s creative community with the knowledge and tools to thrive in the digital space.
Held under the theme “Digital Distribution for Creative Content,” the clinic will bring together musicians, producers, filmmakers, and songwriters for a full day of learning, networking, and mentorship. Participants will gain practical insights into key areas such as digital music distribution, music rights management, promotion and marketing, and finance and analytics interpretation.
According to Shadrack Kisame, the team lead of UgaTunes, the Kampala session aims to help creators understand how to use digital platforms not only to share their art but also to earn sustainable income and grow their audiences globally. Through discussions led by industry experts, creatives will explore how to protect their work, analyze performance data, and build brands that stand out in a competitive global industry.
Speaking about the initiative, UgaTunes emphasized its commitment to creating opportunities for Ugandan talent to compete on the world stage. The platform supports artists by providing access to distribution, publishing, and education tools that simplify the business side of music.
The Business Clinic is free of charge and open to all creatives. It will run from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm at Next Media Park, powered by UgaTunes, the Uganda Communications Commission, and AfroMobile.
For many Ugandan creatives, this event represents more than just a workshop—it is a chance to gain the knowledge, connections, and digital exposure needed to turn their creativity into a sustainable business.
