Society house a thread 🧵 - details are pretty sketchy so any additions or corrections are welcome

Designed by famed Serbian architect, Ivan Straus, the 20 floor Society House was Zambia’s tallest building when it was completed in 1973 #societyhouse @Wika_Kawina GRZ was so impressed with Society House it that they ordered that a second one be built, just 800m south of it for the Finance and Development Corporation (Findeco). It was supposed to be 25 floors high.

Most people don’t realise it’s the same design. #societyhouse

The Trouble with Mega Projects - Working in investments, every 1-3 months, an entrepreneur comes and tells me about a mega project ($100m+) that they are looking to develop. Based on my experience, 99% of them will fail and I’ve prepared this thread to explain why. @siphophiri Creating Value - Ideas 💡 are worthless, your ability to either implement them or get investment onboard generates value.
The four main steps to a mega project are:
Step 1 - the concept.
Step 2 - the study. EPC.
Step 3 - the off taker.
Step 4 - financing.
