About me
I am Sengendo Shafic, a Ugandan social entrepreneur, business development consultant, and innovation trainer passionate about transforming education and empowering youth across East Africa. As the Founder and CEO of Brish Media Empire and Brish Education Network, I lead initiatives that equip young people and small businesses with practical, hands-on skills for innovation, entrepreneurship, and digital transformation.
With over a decade of experience in leadership and enterprise development, I have worked with organizations such as UNICEF, the International Labour Organization (ILO), and the Uganda Small Scale Industries Association (USSIA) to promote social innovation, digital skills, and sustainable business growth. I also mentor young innovators through Wezesha Impact and the Mercedes-Benz beVisioneers Fellowship.
A graduate in Business Administration (Finance major) and an alumnus of the McKinsey Forward Program, I remain committed to inspiring and empowering the next generation of changemakers driving inclusive and sustainable development in Uganda and beyond.
