Managing Partner

Cecilia Kengoro Mutabanura is Managing Partner of Simuka Advisory Partners, where she leads the firm's strategy execution and delivery, and anchors its enterprise growth and investment practice.
Across fifteen years she has governed a USD 2.3M enterprise portfolio, coordinated impact delivery work across national implementing partners, and sat on the investor's side of the table — allocating over USD 700,000 to growth-stage firms from the NSSF Hi-Innovator committee. She helped shape Uganda's first national standards for business support services, and has founded and run a company to profitability herself — so she advises enterprises with the discipline of someone who has carried a P&L, not only studied one.
Her reach runs across borders, in the B2B and B2G matchmaking and market-entry work that links Ugandan enterprises to partners in Belgium, Kenya and beyond. At Simuka AP she connects African businesses to the capital and the markets that let them scale — and to the management quality that makes both hold.
