Pivot East: the social media stream

Want a glimpse inside East Africa’s startup scene? Pivot East is a good place to start. The annual conference and startup competition is currently underway in Kampala, Uganda to help drive mobile entrepreneurship in the region and beyond.

The two-day event includes a mix of interesting speakers, fireside chats with experts and pitching sessions with startups which are hoping to make an impact in everything from entertainment to enterprise, finance and education. It’s run by incubator and training collective m:lab East Africa, which is aiming to grow quality startups in the region and improve their chances of investment.

We’ll be curating a stream of some of the social media highlights emerging from Pivot East on Storify throughout the conference. If you’re more into real time video, there is also a live stream.
