Our Story

The word ‘zivo’ comes from the Southern African Bantu language Shona meaning knowledge. A common practice in the Shona culture is gathering as a community to share ideas, impart knowledge and find a collective way to move forward. Elders and those well versed on a subject will typically serve as the support system dispersing relevant information to the appropriate parties.  The Shona people see it as a more effective and efficient way to brainstorm, overcome challenges and build a stronger community.

This is where we draw inspiration for ZIVO, a unique advisory and consulting firm of ambassadors of knowledge. We work as our clients and partners’ support system through our services in business development, strategic planning, and professional development . 

Our experience spans more than 15 years collaborating with clients in technology, professional services, luxury retail, financial services, and media. 

We look forward to having you join us on this journey.
