		<description>My word to you is that, you don&#039;t only need a lawyer to do your Company formation. But a CPA can also be contacted to help you. If in case your students don&#039;t have enough money to do that, please tell them to use student CPA or Lawyers as this helps all the parties.
Otherwise, its a bit tiresome here in Uganda since everything is mannual with registering a company in Uganda. in this era!!!!!</description>

		<description>For those that are curious, my students started a health software company called RIMPScom (RIMPS is an acronym composed of their initials).  They primarily do repairs on computers and mobile phones, but also will do consulting projects developing health software for small-medium health institutions in the Mbarara area.

As for the entrepreneur environment, there are more than a few small businesses in Uganda, although I cannot give you a full analysis of the entrepreneur environment. You might try by looking at the links in this post.

Most of the published papers and available information deals with the entrepreneur environment in Nairobi, South Africa, and Ghana, maybe Rwanda, all places where Internet access is much more readily and more cheaply available (but still significantly more expensive than elsewhere).  Business Process Outsourcing is playing a significant role in businesses, especially where Internet is flourishing. In Uganda there are several players in the Bulk SMS and database market that I&#039;ve evaluated - here you will see a mix of both pure Ugandan companies and companies either run by European expats or, more often, Indians.  In addition, there are many import/export shops selling goods.

You may look for general discussions on African Entrepreneurship on the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.socialedge.org/discussions/social-entrepreneurship/entrepreneurship-in-africa&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Social Edge&lt;/a&gt; website or potential resources at the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.socialedge.org/discussions/social-entrepreneurship/entrepreneurship-in-africa&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Innovate Africa Network&lt;/a&gt;</description>
