This is so helpful to Zim Devs
Most Zim devs have complained about the harsh realities of regulations in the Zim tech space. And what's worse is most don't even know about these regulations until its too late. So we have created a platform that can help you find out which regulations you need to keep an eye on when building a startup depending on what you are creating. You can find it at startups.techzim.co.zw/regul…

It’s not the map. Taxes make it worse, but the real problem is a market without enough competition.

I built the online shop I always wanted, simple and straight forward, like walking into a shop, pick an item, pay and leave. You'll find most of our products and services in there. You can even book a Starlink installation!

In this video we break down the five kinds of phones on the Zim market i.e brand new, OEM refurbished, non-OEM refurbished, second-hand and fake. For each one we look at what it is , what warranty you get, the risks, and whether it’s honest.

The Zimbabwe Electric Vehicle Association (ZEVA) launched in Harare today. It brings EV dealers, e-bike operators, charging companies, battery specialists and Zimpost under one roof. Competitors like BYD, Beyond Mobility and Satewave are now working together on where chargers go, one national charging standard, battery quality on imported cars and training EV technicians.

It just happens that phone makers love big megapixel numbers but yet many 50MP and 200MP phones save 12MP photos by default. And you might think that’s a flaw but not really. It is a clever feature called pixel binning which means the phone combines tiny pixels into bigger ones that catch more light, giving you clearer, brighter pictures.
