Duc in Altum · 2026Our Story
Our first edition, Duc in Altum (“Launch Into The Deep”), took place on 28 February 2026 at the National Theatre in Kampala. Drawn from SMACK’s own college motto, it was built as a call to action for a generation of young Ugandans standing at the threshold of their first real leaps in life. Thirteen speakers took the stage across entrepreneurship, technology, health, media, and community leadership, drawing 115 attendees and more than 2,900 YouTube views in the months since.
2027 scales that vision further, with a target of 300+ attendees, wider school and institutional outreach, and new immersive features including interactive spaces and structured networking panels.
