Mr Peter Kazibwe, the president @UAA_Uganda while speaking at the launch, with his 18 years of experience in the industry, he emphasized that there is always something new to learn, regardless of how experienced or qualified one may be.
He encouraged students and creatives not to settle at their degrees or master’s qualifications, but to continuously seek knowledge, develop their skills and embrace new opportunities.

Desh Denis: The theme ‘The Bold Rise’ speaks to the young creatives who have great potential and amazing work within them, but are yet to showcase their abilities to the industry. It’s about bringing that boldness out and giving it the visibility it deserves.

.@PeterPistis: The Silverback Awards were born out of the need to bring the creative industry together, recognising that while other sectors had platforms for recognition, creatives lacked one.
