But experts warn about the low pay for their work by companies like Google and Microsoft.<\/p>\n<p>Sama is one of countless new startups developing software and artificial intelligence (AI) systems for large technology companies. It&#039;s like an African version of Silicon Valley, a well-known technology cluster in California, United States of America.<\/p>\n<p>Sana&#039;s client list includes companies such as Google, Ford, Walmart, Sony, BMW, eBay, Microsoft, and NASA. Sana also works for Meta, the owner of Facebook, WhatsApp, and Instagram.<\/p>\n<p>Sama was founded by Leila Janah, an American businesswoman who died of illness in 2020 at the age of 37. She was the daughter of Indian immigrants and a student of African studies. The start-up opened its first branches in India in 2008 and later in Kenya.<\/p>\n<p>In 2019, Sama expanded to Kampala. After Kenya, Uganda is now the second most important country in Africa for this company. Sama&#039;s first office was set up in containers near the university campus in Gulu, the largest city in northern Uganda.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 2560px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><!--[if lt IE 9]><script>document.createElement('video');<\/script><![endif]-->\n<video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-60119-1\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1440\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/ihapari.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/TEASER.mp4?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/ihapari.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/TEASER.mp4\">https:\/\/ihapari.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/TEASER.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"showmore_wrapper\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jovens no Uganda est\u00e3o a desenvolver sistemas de intelig\u00eancia artificial para gigantes tecnol\u00f3gicas mundiais.
