THE Zimbabwe Tourism Authority (ZTA) will on Wednesday host its tourism innovation finals, as it scouts for the best innovation project that can be used to promote tourism in the country.
In a statement, ZTA said the challenge seeks to support youths who have brilliant innovations that can stimulate growth in the sector.
“This battle for top spot is from all the ten provinces, with the winning candidate taking home seed money for their triumphant project to the tune of a whopping US$5 000.
“If you recall, ZTA started on a journey to scout for the best innovative ideas to transform the tourism sector amid the impact of Covid,” reads part of the statement.
The challenge, which was decentralised to all the provinces, targets youths below the age of 30.
“In the spirit of leaving no one and no place behind, the scouting started at provincial levels with provincial winners scooping prizes of US$1 000 each,” ZTA said.
