About Us
Knowledge and experience from thriving global corporations is being brought to the world of start-ups, entrepreneurs and growing SMEs.
Introducing to PZ8
PZ Eight is all about new beginnings and fresh starts – we are a closely knit network who have known corporate success and want to share some of the “tips” with start-ups and with those in the early stages of building a business.
Forbes has estimated that 90% of start-ups fail yet success is not all about luck – our vision is to increase the number of successes and help them keep on succeeding. This should not discourage you but make you want to work harder, better, and smarter.
The mantra of a former respected colleague was that “all business is show business” and a good show is founded on hard work, experience, and exceptional performance!
A good product idea and a strong technical team are not a guarantee of a sustainable business. The business process and issues of a company cannot be ignored, or they will eventually deprive the business of any future.
At PZ8, we believe that a brilliant business idea is just the beginning.
What truly sets a successful venture apart is the journey it undertakes from a concept to a sustainable profitable enterprise.
This journey demands more than just passion; it requires meticulous planning, strategic financial management, and a vision for sustainable growth.
