The Forum, whose theme will be “Boosting Trade and Investment: What can Uganda gain from the Global Gateway?”, brings together Ugandan and European public and private sector operators to promote trade and investments in transformative sectors that drive Uganda’s economic growth.

Dr. Omona assured his guests that H.E. President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni will grace the 3rd edition of the Uganda-EU Business Forum because the President values the EU as Uganda’s key trade and investment partner.

Dr. Omona promised to hold regular consultative meetings with the European Delegation to Uganda to improve bilateral relations between the two sides.

In attendance were, Dr. Christine Charity Mwebesa, Special Presidential Assistant for Economic Affairs and Mr. Fred Moses Mukhooli, Head of the Foreign and Diplomatic Affairs Unit, State House.
