Billbrain Technologies is proud to have participated in the 8th Oil & Gas Convention held today, a key event that brought together stakeholders from across the oil and gas sector to discuss the future of the industry in Uganda and beyond. This year’s theme, “Maximizing National Content and Value Retention,” focused on the importance of localizing manpower, goods, and services, while also fostering capacity building, knowledge transfer, and technology exchange.
Maximizing National Content: A Critical Step Toward Sustainable Development
The theme of this year’s convention is of paramount importance as the oil and gas sector in Uganda continues to expand.

In addition to the direct economic benefits, the convention emphasized the significance of capacity building and fostering long-term, sustainable growth within the oil and gas sector. One key aspect highlighted was the need for increased knowledge transfer and technology sharing between industry players and local firms, which will ensure that Uganda is equipped to manage its natural resources effectively for generations to come.
