Our Member Organisations

The verified network of Innovation and Entrepreneurship Support Organisations that form Startup Uganda.

Startup Uganda's member organisations are the backbone of Uganda's startup ecosystem. They are incubators, accelerators, co-working hubs, coding schools, social enterprise builders, and sector-specific support programmes. Each member organisation is a registered legal entity, has been operational for a minimum of one year, maintains a physical and accessible workspace, and focuses on at least one of the following: technology, innovation, creativity, or entrepreneurship.

What you see here is not a general directory. It is the membership of an association: organisations that have applied, been verified, and committed to the standards of collaboration and accountability that membership requires.
