Zimbabwe continues to receive global recognition for its entrepreneurship, with Econet Wireless Zimbabwe CEO Douglas Mboweni recently receiving a top international award for business leadership.

Mboweni received the 2014 African Leadership Award from the African Leadership Magazine in conjunction with the CEO Club, a prestigious network of chief executive officers from around the world.

He received the award at a ceremony in Dubai in December.

Zimbabwe, together with Tanzania, came in for "special mention" for entrepreneurship at the event.

Mboweni said Zimbabwe already has a strong reputation as a breeding ground for entrepreneurship, and this would continue as long as local businesses are encouraged to invest in their home country and thrive.
