President Mnangagwa has registered his satisfaction with innovation efforts being spearheaded by Bindura University of Science Education (BUSE).
Today the President commissioned BUSE’s industrial park and the state-of-the-art PALPO Technologies Production Plant, which assembles laptops, tablets, and cellphones.
The locally assembled gadgets will be more affordable than imports, thereby increasing accessibility for everyone.
At full operational capacity, the plant will produce up to 12 000 laptops and tablets, as well as 3 000 mobile phones.
Speaking to the media after the commissioning, President Mnangagwa said BUSE is playing its part in aiding the country’s modernisation and industrialisation efforts.
“I am highly impressed by our team here. This is what it ought to be across the country.
“Each time we come here, we find this young man (Vice Chancellor Professor Eddie Mwenje) with new ideas,” he said.
President Mnangagwa also toured the Optometry clinic and officially commissioned BUSE’s main gate.
