ZAA Founder Conrad Mwanza expressed delight after yet another successful Zimachievers event, this time in Dallas, Texas on Saturday 11th November 2017 at the Prestigious Intercontinental Hotel.

"Every campaign has its up's, downs and challenges, but what makes it worth it, is the commitment and perseverance of the team and network around you, and the amount of support received throughout. ZAA could not be possible without the dedicated local partners"

"I would also like to extend gratitude to all the sponsors who stood with us, and helped us fulfil the vision" Mwanza added
