AI is disrupting the legal fraternity and litigation in unprecedented ways. Are our Learned friends ready??

The @UCUniversity approach to “complete education” is intentional and competence-based. Today, the focus was on pitching training. We shifted the training theatre to the National ICT Innovation Hub @innovationhubug to give students practical exposure and real-world experience on a modern innovation stage. In preparation for the "Pitch-day", students were equipped not only with presentation skills, but also with research, market analysis, business modeling, design thinking, teamwork, leadership, and problem-solving competencies. Aligned with the Whole Education Approach, the training prepares students intellectually, emotionally, socially, and professionally for entrepreneurship, innovation, and the modern workforce. Special thanks to the National ICT Innovation Hub, mentors, trainers, and resilient students. New innovations await the nation from these young and talented tech students.

Step inside the lab! Yesterday, the Game Engineering & AR Chapter visited @NsteiSep to see how games are truly built. From Blender 3D modeling to the motion sensor green room, we witnessed the full pipeline. Ideas becoming reality!

The Software Engineering chapter introduced students to GitHub during today's @ucu_csea session, covering everything from installation to collaborative development. Learn more: cse-ucu.com

🪘 The 2025 Impact Report is here! 🪘 Our last Indaba’s theme: Urunana (Kinyarwanda for "Hand in Hand") — beautifully reflected our mission: shaping the future of AI on the continent through solidarity, cooperation, and shared responsibility. In this report, we mark a deliberate shift to an impact-first lens, highlighting 6 key impact areas where we are enabling long-term, systemic change across Africa’s AI ecosystem. As the community matures, our priority moves from growth to optimisation at scale, deepening our impact to ensure no one is left behind in the digital transformation of Africa. We are deeply grateful to all our funders, partners, and volunteers whose continued support makes this work possible, and we thank you for your ongoing commitment to this shared journey. Dive into the full report to see how we are moving forward, hand in hand:👉 deeplearningindaba.com/blog/… #DLI2025 #Urunana

What makes a game unforgettable? The Game Engineering & AR chapter broke it down during yesterday's @ucu_csea activities! From gameplay mechanics to immersive design, we're exploring the art and science of game development.

AI on campus, done right. Bethany Jepchumba took the stage to introduce Nexus a campus AI system designed to support learning, communication, and student productivity. By streamlining access to information, simplifying daily academic tasks, and enhancing the digital learning experience, Nexus shows how AI can truly serve education. This isn’t just about smart tech, it’s about smarter learning.

Imani Mathias Yovani took the stage to introduce File Flow, an intelligent desktop agent that organizes your files, automates workflows and learns your habits while keeping you firmly in control. This is personal computing done right: AI that adapts to your workflow, handles the repetitive tasks, and frees you up to focus on what actually matters. The future of productivity isn’t about replacing the user, it’s about empowering them.

Our second speaker Emily Musimiire introduced Phalanx a system designed to enhance safety and privacy without crossing ethical lines. In a world full of cyber threats, Phalanx shows us how to monitor networks responsibly, secure systems proactively, and protect data lawfully. This isn't about hacking, it's about defense. Ethical cybersecurity is the future, and Phalanx is leading the charge.
