| 26th Annual UNAA Convention "Unity through Cultural Awareness" August 29th - August 31st, 2014 Hyatt Regency - La Jolla at Aventine (Official Hotel of the UNAA Convention) San Diego, CA 6th Annual UNAA Trade & Investment Forum Friday August 29th, 2014 - 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. One of the main objectives of the Ugandan North American Association is to promote the economic interests of Ugandans in the Diaspora. During the last 5 consecutive annual UNAA Conventions a whole day has been set aside for a Trade and Investment Forum. The main objective of this forum is to facilitate the exchange of information and create an enabling environment for trade and investment between Ugandans in the Diaspora, private businesses and government agencies in North America and their counterparts from Uganda. Participants in the Trade and Investment Forum have the unique opportunity to engage top government and company executives in a conference setting. These forums have also provided opportunities for job placement. In several past conventions, participating companies like Equity Bank and Tullow Oil have engaged in job recruitment efforts at the convention. Business sectors from North America and from Uganda represented always include financial services, manufacturing, tourism, coffee and tea, agriculture, construction, IT services, advanced education, commercial transportation, real estate development, commercial import/export services, gifts and decorative accessories, and many others. Very frequently, representatives from some of the companies attending the forums seek to engage enterprising UNAA Members in partnership opportunities. As somewhat of a departure from past Trade and Investment Forums, this year's forum will spend significantly more time analyzing the dynamics of actual existing US/Uganda business ventures and assessing the latent viability (challenges and rewards) of new ventures.
