Zimbabwe's VP Chiwenga urged businesses to seek help from universities for growth at the International Business Conference in Bulawayo. He called on industries to reach out to researchers rather than wait for academic institutions to approach them. Companies should fund research that helps them increase production, he told business leaders. Young, talented researchers need industry guidance about what problems to solve. The audience applauded his practical advice.
Chiwenga stressed that Zimbabwe must boost productivity as it moves from National Development Strategy 1 to Strategy 2. He wants to remove barriers holding back full private sector involvement in the economy. The country needs targeted efforts to make industries more competitive in African trade markets.
