arage48, an Estonian 48 hour hackathon aimed at turning ideas into working prototypes or services within one weekend, recently came to Kampala, Uganda. The Ugandan hackathon is the organization’s first in East Africa after its previous event earlier this year in West Africa. The event was supported by Nokia, Google and MTN Uganda. At the event, 11 interesting startups were formed. One of the more interesting ones was Somesha, a crowd funding platform that helps raise money to help put disadvantaged children in schools. thenextweb/africa/2011/10/02/garage48-spurs-11-innovative-startups-in-uganda/
