What began as a solution for on-the-go connectivity has evolved into a movement that blends tech, culture, and sustainability.

"We didn't want to develop just another tech product," says George, who leads product development. "We wanted to build a meaningful company, one that keeps people connected and gives back." ZAPT is also in talks with UK universities and youth-focused organisations to support career development in sales, tech, and entrepreneurship.
The initiative is designed to equip students and young adults with real-world business experience. "We're not just powering phones," adds Oladimeji, who oversees strategic partnerships. "We're empowering the next generation."
