Alfred Mwabala
CEO of ZamNordic
ZamNordic was founded to strengthen business, investment and knowledge exchange between Zambia and the Nordic region. Built on Zambian insight and Nordic experience, we connect Zambia’s market opportunities with relevant technology, expertise, capital and business networks.
Today, we operate as a strategic business platform for companies, investors, entrepreneurs, municipalities, public institutions and development partners. We help organisations navigate new markets, identify opportunities, build trusted relationships and move from dialogue to practical partnerships and projects.
Our work has a strong focus on renewable energy and sustainable development. In addition to facilitating international collaboration, ZamNordic has expanded its presence in Zambia to include solar-energy solutions, including sales, installation and maintenance. This enables us to combine Nordic expertise with local implementation.
We deliver this through business delegations, conferences, B2B meetings, stakeholder engagement and knowledge-exchange programmes. Our network includes more than 20 global partners and connects organisations across energy, water, waste management and sustainable infrastructure.
Our ambition is to become the leading and most trusted business platform between Zambia and the Nordic countries creating practical market access, long-term partnerships and sustainable impact.
