About
I’m Mwiya Musokotwane.
I build businesses and write about faith, business, public life, technology and the questions that connect them.
Based in Lusaka, Zambia.
This site
This is where I write.
The subjects vary because the work does. Some essays begin with a company or a market; others with Scripture, politics, technology or a question about the future. I use this space to think in public, follow an argument carefully and keep a record of where it leads.
