Call for Papers! The 10th National Conference on Communications (NCC 2026) is coming. 📍 Makerere University 🗓 24th - 26th June 2026 🎯 Theme: “Accelerating Market-Driven Innovation for Uganda’s Development” Submission deadline: 1st May 2026 #GoldenPosts @UCC_ED https://t.co/cFIG5E5haW
Suggested angles
Uganda's regulatory framework (UCC oversight) creates a natural laboratory for testing how market forces can drive telecom innovation — positioning NCC 2026 as the venue where practitioners discuss real constraints and solutions rather than theoretical models
The June 2026 timing at Makerere aligns with Uganda's digital infrastructure rollout; experts can present data on which market-driven models (competitive licensing, spectrum allocation, private investment incentives) are actually moving adoption metrics in East Africa
A paper on how market competition specifically accelerates affordable connectivity in underserved regions differentiates from generic innovation talks — directly addressing Uganda's development gaps through documented case studies from the telecom sector
Position your submission as bringing field evidence on which market mechanisms (not just policy) are closing Uganda's connectivity gaps, making it essential for UCC stakeholders and telecom practitioners attending NCC 2026.
