Student competitors are expected to team up in groups of three to four and exhibit their start-up solutions in the period of two weeks.

The winning team will have an opportunity to compete in the grand global finale for the US$1 million start-up funding.

At the local level, prizes of over US$ 1million approximately Shillings 3.7billion are up for grabs.

The Makerere University Campus Hult Prize Director,Silver Walugembe said 40 students have registered so far and called upon all students and teams to use the opportunity to sell their innovative ideas.
