He was the creator of the ZEDuPad, and the founder of ZAMNET, Africonnect (iConnect & iSMS), TopFloor and iSchool. 

Mr Bennett died on 10th February, 2015. The memorial service for the late Mr Bennett will be held this Saturday, February 14, 2015 at 10:00 hours at Trinity Church on Church road, in Lusaka. He will be buried in England.
