Other guest speakers were the Chairman of Lake Basin Development Authority – Cavince Odoyo Owidi and the Director & Co – founder of SUMO Computers – Satwinder Singh who is also an alumnus of KCA University.  Board members of AAKCAU were also present.

The theme for the event was “Harnessing Opportunities in the Lake Basin Region”. The speakers educated the audience of how to align themselves to the existing opportunities in the region.
