Colin Asiimwe
Kampala, Uganda
I am a passionate ad man interested in watching the industry and seeing it take shape as it affects and is affected by global forces. I have worked across the region for several clients over the years and can comfortably negotiate my way around East Africa.
I am passionate about a traveling and road trips because there is so much to see and learn on the road.
And I am a hobby photographer (nowadays called smartphonograpers) when I can with my phone because I think that is truly the only way to tell our stories by capturing singular moments in time
I love new ideas and concepts, and I’m always excited by disruption in communication.
I currently hold the title for the Samsung Twitter Party Trend of The Year 2014/2015.
I was integral in working to organize the inaugural Social Media Summit Uganda in 2014 which was big success attracting over 200 delegates and has now become an annual event.
In my spare time I dabble in some start-up work and I’m currently working with several teams to bring a couple of project to life that we think truly represent the Africa we want to see.
I also am a panelist and occasional host on the highly popular weekly social commentary TV talk show NTV MEN which is aimed at discussing what's driving and motivating men in our times.
