ZITF: From the view of a First Timer Reflecting on the ended Zimbabwe International Trade Fair (ZITF), it is inevitably a significant event in the region, attracting businesses from various sectors across the globe. While the event provides a platform for networking, showcasing products, and exploring business opportunities, its profitability for a business depends on several factors. Exhibiting at ZITF can offer businesses exposure to a diverse audience, including potential customers, partners, and investors. It allows them to showcase their products or services, build brand awareness, and establish valuable connections within the industry. For businesses looking to expand their market presence in Zimbabwe and the surrounding regions, participating in ZITF can be a strategic investment. Moreover, ZITF often hosts seminars, workshops, and conferences covering various topics relevant to businesses. These sessions provide valuable insights into market trends, regulatory changes, and industry best practices, which can help businesses refine their strategies and stay ahead of the competition. However, the profitability of participating in ZITF also depends on factors such as the cost of exhibition space, travel expenses, and promotional materials. Businesses need to carefully evaluate these costs against the potential benefits in terms of sales leads generated, partnerships formed, and brand visibility achieved.

We are delighted to announce that Serigne Mansour Gaye, President at UK Senegal Business Council, will be speaking at AFSIC - Investing in Africa, 7-9th October 2024. Company Overview: Launched on 20 November 2017, the Senegal-UK Chamber of Commerce is a not for profit organisation which is dedicated to forging professional and business relationships between Senegal and the UK. Working in close co-operation with businesses and ministerial bodies in both Senegal and the UK, the Chamber provides a platform for greater bilateral trade and investment opportunities. Through its "Senegal Business Hub Services", the Chamber has already helped several companies set up in Senegal. Acting as the first point of call for prospective investors, the Chamber can help UK businesses identify market opportunities, access regional business intelligence and benefit from a range of other services offered to members (including marketing and media services, regulatory and compliance checks and due diligence and company background checks). Existing investors can also benefit from the Chambers' business support services, market research and knowledge sharing in order to ensure continued growth and expansion. The Chamber also supports Senegalese companies seeking to partner with UK businesses or looking to invest in the UK. The Chamber already boasts a membership pool spanning sectors from Finance, Tech and Insurance to Oil and Gas, Electricity and Agriculture. To bolster that network, the Chamber has to date participated in a host of industry conferences and seminars in London, Liverpool, Manchester, Edinburgh and Glasgow. Recent highlights include the launch event hosted in the London offices of International law firm, Addleshaw Goddard and upcoming events include a Senegal Investment Day hosted by Bloomberg, London. Guidance published by the Foreign and Commonwealth office cites Senegal as one of the most stable countries in Africa. The Chamber is well placed to help both new and existing UK investors to access exciting opportunities and extend their trading relations beyond more traditional partners within the Commonwealth. As a former French colony, Senegal is still dominated by French companies with only a relatively small (albeit growing) British presence. The Senegal-UK Chamber of Commerce can play a role in facilitating that growth by helping to build ties and overcome any challenges of doing business in Senegal.

Exactly 2 weeks to go before the SAVCA Industry Awards. I've been fortunate to attend the AVCA conference in Jhb this week. It has been fascinating to hear from the Speakers the responsibility that exists for us all as ecosystem players, to grow our businesses from pre-seed right up to large-sized and even IPO status, especially in the current "funding winter" that the entire continent is grappling with. 1) Sharing our success stories is a fundamental part of enabling companies to weather these storms! 2) Bringing visibility into the various forms of support they access from their VC and PE investors is yet another. 3) Showcasing the impact of entrepreneurship as an engine for employment, innovation and solutioning for real problems, is perhaps the most important reason. This is fundamentally what our Awards are about. We are so excited about celebrating these trailblazers. #entrepreneurship #awards #industryawards
