Greetings Zimbabwean entrepreneurs,

With the world changing so rapidly, technology is often seen as the driving force behind progress and innovation. But does technology really matter in shaping our lives and businesses, or is it simply a tool?  

 DOES TECHNOLOGY MATTER? 

For individuals and organisations alike, technology presents both opportunities and challenges. While it enables greater efficiency, connectivity and problem-solving, its value depends largely on how it is harnessed. In Zimbabwe, technology is transforming industries, education, healthcare and everyday life, opening doors that were previously unimaginable. But it also brings new complexities that demand careful consideration and strategic use. Read this week's ATLAS Venture Trove titled Does technology matter?

 INVENTORY TURNOVER 

Inventory turnover is a key financial metric used to evaluate how efficiently a company manages its stock of goods. It measures how often inventory is sold and replaced over a specific period. Understanding this ratio is crucial for optimising inventory levels and ensuring a healthy cash flow. Read this week's ATLAS Resource on, Inventory Turnover, details are on our website here.
