WHY EDiC EXISTS
Uganda has always been forced to look outward for survival when it comes to importing tools, importing parts, importing ideas, and even experienced labor. That dependency has kept us vulnerable, slowed our growth, and limited our imagination. EDiC exists to break that cycle through four core drivers:
EDiC

Strategic Pillars (2024–2029)

Strengthening Local Manufacturing Capabilities

EDiC is addressing Uganda’s reliance on imports by strengthening local manufacturing capabilities through research, reverse engineering, and advanced production technologies. By investing in precision engineering, innovation-driven R&D, and streamlined processes, EDiC delivers high-quality, cost-effective tools and systems that enhance productivity, reduce costs, and shorten lead times.

Commercialization of Technological Innovations

EDiC bridges the gap between research and market adoption by accelerating the commercialization of engineering and technological innovations.

Collaborative Partnerships and Linkages

Fragmented efforts and weak networks have slowed industrial progress. EDiC strengthens Uganda’s industrial ecosystem by forging strategic partnerships with industry, government, academia, and innovators.

Engineering Capacity Development

EDiC is addressing Uganda’s shortage of skilled industrial talent by building a critical mass of engineers, technicians, and innovators equipped with advanced design, engineering, and manufacturing expertise.
