We would like to thank you all for the support in 2020. This could be termed the year the forum made the greatest impact since formation 6 years ago. We had well attended events starting in February and March before lockdown–our online trainings also had record attendants, our Seke Tour probably the biggest tour by locals and we wrapped the year with a well attended Awards Ceremony.

The fastest growing sector in Zimbabwe is no doubt entrepreneurship! It is attracting all ages, sexes, the employed and unemployed, pensioners, locals and diasporans–almost the whole nation is interested in entrepreneurship.

With Zimbabwe having the second largest informal sector in the world after Bolivia, it is no surprise why the buzz word around the country is how to make income!

Our forum is at the heart of entrepreneurship with more than 92,000 members and growing. The focus has been networking members to unlock opportunities. Is it easy to network members? It is a tall order–a surmountable task. We are trying to do the impossible!

However we have registered great progress starting with record attendances at our meetings in February and March before Covid-19 derailed plans. We picked the pieces in October with a record attendance of our Seke Tour.

Inorder to comply with Covid-19 regulations, we have empowered members to network in their areas of residence and this is likely to pay huge dividends as members link up for business opportunities in clusters and also get a chance to market their businesses.

The attendance has been impressive and with time, Zimbabwe will have plenty of business meetings and fairs–some from our forums and the majority from others.

Below we showcase some of the photos from our weekend meetings.
