On February 15 , John Magnay, A2i representative in East Africa, had the distinguished honor of accompanying Signe Winding Albjerg, the Danish Ambassador to Uganda, and Yolisa Khantawane, Country Manager for Maersk Shipping, to the country home and farm of His Excellency Yoweri Kaguta Museveni in Ntungamu, Western Uganda.
The visit was part of the EU-Business Forum initiative, aimed at briefing H.E. President Museveni on the growing engagement between Denmark and Uganda.

During the closed-door briefing, the delegation highlighted key areas of Danish-Ugandan collaboration, focusing on expanding activities in grains, coffee, and avocado production. The discussions also covered advancements in irrigation, organic fertiliser solutions, black soldier fly farming, water safety, and green energy initiatives—areas vital to Uganda’s sustainability and food security.
