East Africa has built a real software industry. Nairobi's iHub kicked off the regional tech scene more than a decade ago, Kigali is positioning itself as a continental tech hub, and Kampala and Dar es Salaam have growing communities of developers, designers, and product people. The sector spans bespoke software studios, SaaS startups, IT support firms, cloud-service resellers, cybersecurity specialists, telecoms, and hardware distributors.

EABD lists software development companies, web and mobile app studios, IT support firms, cloud and DevOps consultancies, cybersecurity providers, telecom operators and ISPs, and hardware retailers. Verified profiles show technology stacks, case studies (where the client has consented), team size and reviews, which are the practical signals a CTO needs to shortlist a partner.

About Uganda

Uganda's economy is built on agriculture, growing manufacturing capacity, the oil discoveries in the Albertine Graben, and a vibrant Kampala-centred services sector. The country's central location makes it a hub for landlocked trade serving South Sudan, eastern DRC, Rwanda, and Burundi.

EABD lists verified Ugandan businesses across Central, Eastern, Northern, and Western regions, with deep coverage of Kampala, Wakiso, Mukono, Jinja, Mbarara, Gulu, and the other major urban centres. Verification cross-references URSB registration where applicable. The directory is built to help buyers find suppliers, investors find opportunities, and the Ugandan business community trade with each other and the wider East African region with confidence.
