Investment sector / Zimbabwe
Digital & communications
Support the connections, services and skills that help businesses operate. A digital opportunity should identify its users, revenue model, infrastructure dependencies and responsibility for information security.
The enterprise perspective
Where value
can be created.
- Connectivity and communications infrastructure
- Software and digital business services
- Business and knowledge process outsourcing
- Digital skills and enterprise support
- Data services and technology-enabled operations
A useful starting point
Build the case,
one question at a time.
Bring the information you have. Unknowns become preparation tasks; they do not automatically prevent an initial conversation.
- Is the proposition a software service, communications network, outsourcing operation or another defined activity?
- Who will pay for it, and what customer or pilot evidence exists?
- What power, connectivity, equipment and skills are needed for a reliable service?
- What data will be handled, who owns the technology and what activity-specific permissions need assessment?
Evidence to prepare
Make the proposition
possible to assess.
Describe what exists, its source and date, and what still needs confirmation. Sensitive records should follow an agreed private sharing process.
- Business and ownership details, product or service description, intellectual-property position and team capability.
- Customer research, available pilot results, contracts or letters of interest, with their status identified.
- Infrastructure and operating plan, service assumptions, delivery budget, security and continuity arrangements.
- Map of personal or sensitive data handled, available regulatory correspondence and a costed plan for unresolved technical or compliance work.
