We build technology to protect women.
We also support programs that empower women in tech careers.
Same mission. Different approaches. One vision: communities where women thrive.
Proud of our COO @saul_kabali for mentoring at @WITU_UG's Job Readiness Bootcamp 🇺🇬
Who knows that you know what you know?
This question from Eva at the @WITU_UG bootcamp hit different.
Your skills mean nothing if they're invisible. Your impact means nothing if it's not shared.
To the young women I mentored: Make some noise. Uganda's tech scene needs your voice

We are thrilled to share that @SafebangleT one of our startups won the prestigious 2025 World Summit Award (WSA) in the Inclusion & Empowerment category!
They had the incredible honor of representing Uganda at the WSA Global Congress in Hyderabad, India, where their innovation was recognized among the top digital solutions from 182 countries.
The wearable device allows users to discreetly send alerts with precise location data to trusted contacts during emergencies via a single button press, making safety accessible even in areas with limited internet access.
We’re proud to be building a safer, more inclusive world—one bangle at a time.

Hardware innovation isn't easy in our ecosystem - limited manufacturing, component sourcing challenges, longer development cycles. This recognition validates that these barriers aren't insurmountable when the solution truly matters. #HardwareInnovation#Persistence 4/5

"Why did you use traditional beadwork in your safety technology?" asked innovators from Europe. "Because technology only works when it respects culture," we answered. This design philosophy resonated across borders at the Congress. #DesignThinking#AfricanInnovation 2/5
