- Birth and First steps.
The idea of Tesla Science Foundation Uganda (TSFU) was inspired by the frequent interactions with international promoters of NIKOLA TESLA’S works from the United States of America (USA) and The Republic of Serbia. The thought of establishing a branch in Uganda and Africa was conceived in the year November, 2022 by two young Ugandans who were later joined by three talented and experienced personalities.
