Zimba Women is joining stakeholders at the Digital Literacy Dialogue on Strengthening Uganda’s Digital Skills Ecosystem, convened by the Uganda Communications Commission and the British Council.

Our Founder and CEO @Sherrytums , will participate in the panel on “Building a Collaborative and Sustainable Digital Skills Ecosystem, Including Lessons from the Region.”

Could poor tax planning be costing your business more than you realise? 💰💰

For many entrepreneurs, tax compliance is something we only think about when URA comes knocking. But understanding your tax obligations, planning ahead and managing tax risks can save your business money and support sustainable growth.

At Zimba Women, we believe that building a successful business goes beyond making sales. It also means understanding the financial and regulatory obligations that come with running one.

That’s why we’re proud to partner with @Bennet_advisory Uganda for the Annual Tax Clinic 2026! 🎉

Join us for practical insights on:
✅ Strategic tax planning to protect your profits
✅ Staying compliant and avoiding costly penalties
✅ Managing tax risks and preparing for URA audits
✅ Making informed financial decisions as your business grows
✅ Planning ahead for the 2027 tax year

📅 19 November 2026
📍 Sheraton Hotel, Kampala
⏰ 7:00 AM – 1:00 PM
🎟️ Tickets start at UGX 150,000

Ladies, growing your business is important. Protecting what you earn is just as important!

Today, we celebrate 64 years of independence, resilience, and the remarkable spirit of the Ugandan people.

At Zimba Women, we believe that true independence also means economic freedom ,the freedom for every woman to dream, build a business, access opportunities, and create a better future for herself, her family, and her community.

As we celebrate how far our nation has come, we recommit ourselves to building a Uganda where no woman is left behind in the digital economy.

Because when women are empowered, businesses thrive, communities prosper, and nations grow. ❤️

Here’s to the strength of our women, the resilience of our entrepreneurs, and the limitless potential of our beautiful Uganda!

Happy Independence Day! 🇺🇬
