Unlocking New Frontiers for Investment & Economic Growth

By Daily News Reporter 

In a landmark move to catalyze Zambia’s economic development, the Zambia Diaspora Chamber of Commerce (ZDCC) has officially appointed Byron Whetstone as the Chair of the Investment Committee. Tasked with leading efforts to mobilize $1 billion in strategic investments by 2030, this initiative is set to transform Zambia into a premier destination for global investors.

Before this appointment, Byron Whetstone served as the Membership Director of ZDCC, where he played a pivotal role in pulling together and attracting new members. His proven track record in fostering business relationships for over a decade in Zambia made him the ideal candidate for this leadership position.

Byron’s appointment received unanimous approval from ZDCC members, including those physically present at the International Business Exchange Conference (IBEx) 2025 and those attending virtually from the United States. His official confirmation was signed by ZDCC President, Freud Musanu, solidifying his mandate to steer Zambia’s investment future.

The announcement was made at an exclusive launch event at Zoran Café, Levy Mall, Lusaka, bringing together influential business leaders, financial institutions, government representatives, and global stakeholders.
