we were all trying to do final touches before 8:00am in the Morning.
Everything seemed really set but the participants were no where to be seen, things were getting complicated for the organisers and the ushers but we had faith. One by One the people begun to pull in and we were ready to roll.
+Nsubuga Hassan our Guest Speaker took the stage and talked to us about the ongoing Google Cloud Developer Challenge. He also took us through an intro of the App Engine to quick start our developers to the cloud computing challenge. There was a question and answer session thereafter which was followed by break tea and snacks.
After Emily's talk we headed out for a nice lunch that was served to more than 100 developers who attended our Devfest. there was alot of networking going on over lunch but we had to go in for what was the most exciting part of the evening.
We kicked off by getting a small talk from +Ssesanga Dennis Ernest who has been an intern at Google Local office in Kampala talking to us about to stand out as a student doing whatever course you are doing and how to become a Google Student Ambassador. He also talked about his experience as a Google Intern which inspired alot of students in Busitema.

- Need a good problem
- Structured Methodology
- Access to Talent(People with Skill)
- Enough Runway.
He took us through what he believes are the most important steps for a start-up and he tended to a lot of questions from the soon to be start up founders.
We later had some evening Tea and a snack as some of the developers were showcasing their app to the guests.
