MultiChoice Uganda, the home of great Pay TV, and the National Producers Guild of Uganda, the professional body dedicated to promoting and supporting the interests of film producers in the country, held a workshop for 150 Ugandan producers aimed at strengthening their knowledge on business processes. Uganda’s film sector has experienced significant growth in recent years which is driven by increasing demand for authentic local stories. However, producers often face challenges with financing, distribution, and structuring their businesses sustainably.

This initiative directly addresses these gaps, equipping the participants with practical skills to elevate the industry’s standards. Established as a not-for-profit company, the organisation’s vision is to lobby, advocate, and create an environment where local talent can thrive, enhance Uganda’s cultural representation and bring economic benefits to the film-makers through the development of the film industry in Uganda.Travel packages to Uganda for film enthusiasts Online movie streaming services Speaking at the workshop, Mathew Nabwiso, the President of the National Producers Guild, highlighted the importance of having engagements with different players in the industry.
