08.04.2024 - 09.04.2024

On 8-9 April 2024, our implementing partner the Global Distributors Collective (GDC) will host the GDC Member Learning and Collaboration Event in Lusaka, Zambia.

Supported by GET.invest, the event will bring together GDC members to strengthen their business models, and develop their skills and knowledge through learning from peers and sector experts. The aim is to enhance the investability and impact of Last Mile Distributors (LMDs), as well as their eligibility for GET.invest’s Finance Access Advisory services. Additionally, the event wants to raise awareness among third-party stakeholders – such as investors, trainers and service providers – about the needs, priorities, and partnership opportunities associated with LMDs.
