About this event

This meetup brings together software developers, product managers, startup founders, and entrepreneurs to explore what it really takes to build successful B2B (Business-to-Business) products in Africa.

Our guest speaker Allan Rwakatungu is a seasoned entrepreneur who has walked the talk — he founded Xente, a regulated fintech leader in Uganda, and now leads Tyms, an AI platform helping companies grow by automating tasks and eliminating busywork.

Allan will share lessons from building products that serve enterprises, scaling in the Ugandan and African market, navigating regulations, and finding product–market fit in B2B. Whether you’re building your first startup or managing a growing product, this session will give you practical insights you can use immediately.
