Here is something we have been working on. We still have some ways to go but try it and give me feedback. The goal is to help people easily plan for vacations in different African countries with the help of local experts. We want people to discover the hidden gems, to stray from the beaten road and have a full experience on our motherland. You can apply to be a country expert ,or if you own a restaurant, hotel/bnb, or tour company, it is free to list. wapota.com/

I tracked 123 winners and finalists of Zimbabwe’s startup competitions and hackathons from 2011 to 2026 (POTRAZ, Old Mutual’s Value Creation Challenge, Cimas Healthathon, bank hackathons, the old ZOL challenges) and checked which are still running. We compiled research materials which you can get at startups.techzim.co.zw/commu…

123 startup winners since 2011. I went looking for every one of them. 70 have no public trace. Only 17 are still standing. What happens to Zim's hackathon winners after the cheque? Watch to the end and tell me what you think
