The Future of Education: Introducing the Standalone Scholastica Expo 2025 | ZITF

Why is Scholastica becoming its own standalone event in 2025? In this episode, we sit down with Tano GMO, Marketing & Corporate Communications Manager for the ZITF Company, to discuss the massive growth of Zimbabwe’s premier education and career development platform. From its humble beginnings as a small conference to reaching over 1,500 attendees, we explore how the new Expo will offer more space for networking, tech-driven interactions, and direct recruitment opportunities for businesses and students alike.



Standalone Status: Why 2025 marks the "weaning off" of Scholastica from the main ZITF show to allow it room to grow.

Who Should Attend? Beyond students and teachers—how recruiters, suppliers (transport, stationery, uniforms), and development actors benefit.

Networking vs. Listening: The shift toward interactive "Buyer Meetings" and networking instead of just "speak and listen" sessions.

Tech-Driven Interactions: How the ZITF IT team is using technology to facilitate deeper engagement between participants and sponsors.

National Impact: How Scholastica aims to shape national educational policy and long-term career outcomes in Zimbabwe.
