Wantate Dennis is a serial entrepreneur and the CEO and co-founder of Nisoft Solutions, an innovative IT and entrepreneurial company providing ICT, networking, website design & graphics design, e-commerce and digital marketing solutions to clients in Africa.
​
My name is Wantate Dennis. I always want to be real about my life and this time surely, i am.
​
When i was a kid, everyone talked about me as the smartest they had ever seen! I was curious about almost everything, for instance, at one time i was an engineer, electrician, footballer and later a computer wizard. But in class i was a very quiet and reserved person who was there to judge, correct, laugh and comment on anything to anyone but all done in my mind. It was savage!
​
When i grew older, i really wanted the whole world to know about the talent i have in the Internet and Computer world, and this is where i got the passion of creating my own IT Company. When i told my family and friends about creating my own IT Company, they all laughed and complimented about how i wanted to do things of people who are already 50 years of age yet i was just twenty so i couldn't handle it.
I was so focused and i was ready to prove them that i was so determined and my idea would grow bigger and bigger until reality.
It's real NOW.
I am CEO Nisoft Dynamics Ltd .
ABOUT
DENNIS
A Boy from kawempe
I grew up in a family of five where i was the only boy, at Kawempe with our single Mom, having lost my father at the age of 11, she taught us quite a lot of techniques we could use to survive in this survival for the fittest world. I remember her famous saying, "Hard work does brake no bone"
She was a hair dresser and being her eldest child i knew all about hair dressing and all kinds of hair styles, before my young sisters got to learn about them, this was beyond fun!
​
My mother's life was all focused on us and she was not ready to give up on us until she saw us succeeding. In that, i also helped her in guiding my young siblings so we could make it in life.
​
My farther's story is a bit limited because he left us early before we could even start dreaming "the dreams we have today".
I remember him to be a hardworking man who took his family as a priority in his life and he was ready to sacrifice his sweat for us in any way possible.
​
He knew me and my sister Damalie loved bread so much so he would often ask us whether we could eat a whole big loaf of bread such that he would buy it for us (smiles). I can't forget this because I learnt two lessons:
-
If you work hard, you can eat a whole loaf of bread anytime you want it.
-
Never take the chances you have on earth for granted, once they come grab them and make use of them.
​​
When i was a boy, he usually mentioned to me, "oli kasajja kagezi" meaning (you're a wise kid) I would feel so proud and put in more effort to keep surprising him with my wisdom and creativity so that he could continue praising me.
​
Unfortunately, he died and he can praise me no more.
​
From then, I am one person who will wake up in the morning, think about an idea and i will stick on it until it turns into reality No mater what! Yes, everything comes with fantasies, risks and boundaries, but i bear no nonsense.
​
I have had a great experience in finding new people for myself as friends. The greatest experience includes, the worst friends i ever had, the encouraging ones, those that want to learn something about me then walk away, the traitors that are always there for me (but in actual sense, they are not). But i have loved all this, i got lessons from them, close my heart from them and then keep them so close, so that they watch my achievements One by One.
​
I have further learnt about people's behavioral change right from my cousins that mother used to look after who the world had turned against and when they grew old, they made her their greatest enemy. This has never stopped amusing me, I mean, how could you sacrifice your sweat to make someone's life better but all they ever wish for is yours to be miserable.
​
Well, for all that i have learnt and yet to, i am not giving up at anyone moment. But remember all this rotates around faith and hard work, the world is "Focus"
The greatest skill i have always watched grow in me is Art. Art in everything would make me feel am at it again! At school i was one of the best art students and everyone was proud of me. Though i wanted to venture more into art, i guess it stretches right from my childhood curiosity. While at Nkumba University in Uganda, i did a Bachelors Degree in Graphics and Communication Design because of the much love i had for art and so passionate about spending almost 20 hours on my computer. "I am a cyber addict"
​
I remember one of my first projects in Graphics being Alter Graphics Uganda, an idea of a Company that would be professional in producing all kinds of computer graphics. I would surf the Internet almost a full day in order to work and improve on my skills, typing like i created the computer keyboard and learning more on how to play with pictures, animation to mention but a few. "I am a blogger"
While at it, i learnt that i could go deep into Internet marketing and when i first thought about it, i was so mesmerized. Oh how it was so adventurous! "I am a marketeer"
Marketing on social media then became my game too because this could earn me more than i had expected. I was so happy how i would be given the responsibility of creating brand awareness for someone/organization and people perceive it and at the end of it all it is a success in the society, created by me!
​
There is a quote i love so much, "Aspire to inspire before you expire". I am inspired by a lot of entrepreneurs mostly one man called, Strive Masiyiwa and i have later on realized am becoming an inspiration to other people respectively. I always want to talk to the youth about my experience and i want to always motivate someone out of my league and circle. To be their best motivational speaker and am sure a lot of people will follow my path because they are out there.
​
I want to speak to them about the Internet security, enabling them to stop computer misuse and fight against it in all possible ways then venture into finding clients that will turn their businesses into famous incompetable outstanding kind of luxurious games.
Everyone of them would love it!
It takes backbone to live the life you want.
PASSION
is the GENESIS of
GENIUS
Remember, my personality is far different from my attitude, in this contemporary world "success is determined by character" and the best of it all. "Success or Failure the choice is yours."
​
A wise man said, "When talent fails then try Hard Work." I call my self lucky because i have the two and that made my name to be a Brand.
