INTERNATIONAL business continues to warm up to Zimbabwe as three foreign business delegations from the Americas and Asia are in the country to scout and tie up investment projects in various sectors. The trade missions are coming from China, Canada and the US. To create a platform for the visiting investors to interact with the local business environment and players, the Ministry of Macro-Economic Planning and Investment Promotion is organising a breakfast meeting to be held tomorrow at the Crown Plaza Monomotapa hotel.

New York Times Best-Selling author and chairman of Casey Research, Doug Casey, senior editor Nick Giambruno, chief video content officer Jonathan Roth also from Casey Research and Tommy Humphreys founder and chief executive officer of CEO.CA, Canada’s fastest growing investor community and app are in the country and will interact with the business community at the breakfast meeting.

The Chinese investors have expressed interest in the transport sector particularly the railway sub sector.

The Chinese delegation is expected to meet management of the National Railways of Zimbabwe in Bulawayo today. On Friday, they are scheduled to meet Transport and Infrastructural Development minister Joram Gumbo.

Mr Case widely writes and speaks on economics, investment markets and politics.

In May 2015 Casey research was in-part purchased by Stansberry research, the world’s largest financial publisher with over one million readers around the world. The two companies combined comprise the best-read financial advisory service globally.

Mr Humphreys is a 30-year-old entrepreneur and blogger from Vancouver, Canada. His CEO CA members include tens of thousands of CEOs, portfolio managers and investors from over 50 countries.
