“The upcoming Annual Stakeholder Convention, where Vice‑President Mohadi will be the Guest of Honour, will bring together professionals from different fields across all 10 provinces, including the Diaspora community.
“With the convention taking place on April 29 at Heritage Village in Harare, we anticipate enhanced collaboration between professionals and senior Government officials going forward,” he said.

The Presidential Programme 4 Professionals is an initiative established to create a network of professionals working with the President to address national socio‑economic challenges, foster innovation and advance sustainable development.
It also seeks to promote professional excellence and teamwork among senior Government officials and industry experts.
Mr Ngirazi said the initiative is aligned with the national vision espoused by President Mnangagwa of transforming Zimbabwe into an upper‑middle‑income economy by 2030.
“Every professional in Zimbabwe, including those in the Diaspora, must play a role in contributing towards Vision 2030.
“We expect innovative ideas from this convention that will help address gaps within our industries and markets,” he said.
It is hoped that the convention will foster a spirit of teamwork across different disciplines while promoting the adoption of digital solutions to enhance efficiency and service delivery.
“In today’s world, many challenges faced by professionals can be addressed through digital innovation” Mr Ngirazi said.
