A INDIA-BASED university has honoured a Zimbabwean author and engineer with honorary doctorates in recognition of their work in that country.
Cambridge Digital University in partnership with India Research Centre issued a degree to entrepreneur, researcher and authour Blessing Guta at a function held in Goa, India last week.
The institution also awarded a doctorate degree to Engineer Edzai Kachirekwa, who is the president of the Afro Eurasia Energy Centre.
Kachirekwa is an engineer in power generation and high voltage transmission lines.
Guta’s distinguished career spans entrepreneurship, strategic research and authorship, positioning him as a leading voice for emerging business leaders across Africa and beyond.
His recently published book, Legal Battles of an Entrepreneur — Navigating the Business Legal Landscape, has resonated deeply within business communities for its clear, practical guidance on addressing and avoiding legal challenges commonly faced by entrepreneurs.
Grounded in extensive fieldwork and research, the book offers a unique blend of legal insight and business strategy.
It has been widely acknowledged as a valuable resource for start-ups, small and medium-sized enterprises, and even established businesses seeking to strengthen their foundations within often complex legal frameworks.

While in India, Guta engaged with various academic institutions and entrepreneurial networks, further strengthening ties between African and Asian thought leaders in business development, policy and innovation.
“This recognition is not just about me — it's a reflection of Zimbabwean resilience, innovation and the enduring spirit of enterprise. I am deeply honoured to represent our great nation on the global stage,” Guta said.
