Yesterday, we proudly flagged off our four #AbsaKH3_7HillsRun 2026 champions as they travel from Kampala to Lusaka to represent Uganda at the 2026 Absa Marathon Zambia, a World Athletics-certified race. Peter Akwech, Isaac Masaai, Sylvia Chelangat and Abate Tadelech earned their place by finishing first and second in the men's and women's 25km categories at this year's Absa KH3–7 Hills Run, an event that continues to rally thousands of Ugandans in support of girls' education. When we launched the race, we made a promise: our top finishers would earn the chance to compete at another Absa race on the continent. Today, we are delivering on that promise, and giving four athletes a bigger stage on which to tell their story. Speaking at the flag-off, @BisangaAtwook, our Head of Client & Digital Marketing, highlighted the power of our Pan-African presence, where shared platforms, experiences and partnerships across our markets help develop sport and open doors for people to write their next chapter. This journey was made possible by great partners. A special thank you to our colleagues at @AbsaZambia PLC for warmly hosting our athletes, and to @Absa for championing the connections that make opportunities like this possible. We are also grateful to @KenyaAirways, represented by Felix Mwangangi, Country Manager Uganda, for flying our champions to Lusaka, and to Alice Gitta Okecho, Hash Master of the @Kh3Kampala, for the partnership that made the 7 Hills Run and this journey a reality. Peter, Isaac, Sylvia and Abate: run strong, run proud, and bring it home for Uganda. Go well! 🇺🇬

From the run to the reward! 🏃🏾‍♂️🏆 Absa has officially handed over the prize to our KH3 & HILLS Run winner! Big congratulations!

The miles were worth it! 🏃🏾‍♂️💨 Our KH3 & HILLS Run winner just copped the win as Absa comes through with the handover.

It's race week. Team Uganda 🇺🇬 will be at the BMW Berlin Marathon on 27 September 2026. Thank you @teammatooke for the send-off. We will carry the 🇺🇬 flag high.

Why do you run? This is a question I have faced often over the last six years, and like many, I still recall my first recorded run to stay alive during Covid-19. Over time, this journey has evolved beyond fitness to finding that many people now love running/walking, building a valuable network, and developing meaningful friendships. However, the most fulfilling part has been the impact on communities and putting purpose behind every step. We recently donated the proceeds from the Absa KH3-7 Hills Run, held on 17 May 2026, to the 8 implementing partners across the country. This year’s edition raised UGX 700 million, bringing our collective support to UGX 1.6 billion over the last 4 years, and will extend our reach to over 30,000 young people we support to stay in school. Thank you to the over 8,000 runners who participated and partnered in this meaningful cause. This shows that your contribution matters. Together we are changing lives and writing a great story for the next generation. Beyond the 7 Hills, it's good to see several activities happening in our communities to support different causes. When the road gets tough, training gets intense, and the hills push your endurance to the limit, having a higher purpose keeps us going. Once again, who do we run? It’s for such reasons that we put one foot in front of the other. Keep running, keep moving, keep impacting.

When young people are given the tools to understand, make informed decisions and take charge of their futures, the impact can ripple through families, communities and generations. On Saturday, we had the opportunity to be part of the 3rd Annual RYLA Festival in Kabale, where we joined young leaders from across the country for a day of learning, connection and inspiration. Through our financial literacy training, we shared practical knowledge to help young people make confident financial decisions, manage their resources and build stronger foundations for their future. For us, investing in young people and equipping them with the knowledge and confidence to turn their ideas into meaningful impact is a building block for transforming our communities. To more partnerships like this where we can come together to empower the next generation and build a more inclusive and resilient future, together.

Uganda does not just need more investment interest. It needs more investment delivered. That was one of the strongest takeaways from our engagement at the UK-Africa Investment Summit in London this week. Together with colleagues from Absa’s UK office, we engaged investors, policymakers and business leaders on Uganda’s opportunity, and on what it takes to convert interest into bankable, investable opportunities. Prime Minister, Hon. @RobinahNabbanja and State Minister for Privatisation and Investment Hon. Hajjat @AminahMukalazi made the case for Uganda’s investment climate, while our engagement with H.E. @LisaJChesney, British High Commissioner to Uganda, reinforced the importance of stronger UK-Uganda trade and investment ties following our recent membership on the British chamber of commerce Uganda. The signals are encouraging: Uganda is now among Africa’s top three markets in the 2025 Absa Africa Financial Markets Index, while UK Government-backed investment in Uganda has already exceeded £1.3 billion, with a further £1 billion in the pipeline. The next chapter is about execution. That is where Absa plays a role. Connecting local insight, Pan-African expertise, financing solutions and international capital to help turn opportunity into investment.

Africa's investment opportunity is increasingly clear, and I have strong confidence in Uganda's ability to capture a greater share of it. That confidence was reinforced at the #UKAfricaInvestmentSummit2026 in London, through conversations with investors, business leaders, legislators and Ugandan policymakers, including the Prime Minister, Hon. @R_Nabbanja, State Minister for Privatisation and Investment, Hon. @AminahMukalazi, who made a compelling case for Uganda's peaceful, stable investment climate to UK investors. It was equally valuable to continue engaging with H.E. @LisaJChesney following @AbsaUganda's recent membership in the @BritChamUg, as we deepen trade and investment ties with the UK. Uganda's progress over the last couple of years is increasingly visible. We have risen from 10th in 2018 to 3rd in the 2025 Absa Africa Financial Markets Index, on the back of strengthening legal frameworks, FX stability and other reforms to deepen our financial markets, strengthen transparency and improved investor confidence. International appetite is clear too. The UK's portfolio of investments in Uganda, through @UKEF, @BritishIntInv, @PIDGorg and others, has surpassed £1.3 billion, with a further £1 billion in the pipeline, per the UK Government. The task now is converting that interest into investment and growth, which takes local market knowledge, the right financing structures, and connections to international capital. This is where Absa's Pan-African capabilities matter. We understand African markets from within and connect that understanding to the capital, expertise and relationships needed to turn opportunity into investment. I leave London with even greater confidence in Uganda's opportunity, and in the role we can play in helping realise it.
