    Abstract
    The research investigates the impact of pursuing Zimbabwe’s vision 2030 and education 5.0 through disruptive innovation by introducing a resource sharing application that provides solutions to construction industry and real estate problems. A resources sharing application is an end to end web based system that includes a Mobile Application and Corresponding website service that facilitates trade and data management in the construction and real estate industry through online equipment and machinery hiring and logistics, online civil and building contracting, material purchases, personnel hiring, tender process, consultancy, insurance and real estate management. A qualitative approach was adopted for this research and 10 construction professionals were interviewed. The main findings are related to the benefits of introducing disruptive innovation in pursuit of vision 2030 and Education 5.0. This innovation is meant to benefit the national economic discourse and nurture talent that solve industrial challenges. The Innovation and Industrialization elements of Education 5.0 are the pillars upon which the researcher aims to bring fresh thinking to and solutions to the construction industry. The resource sharing platform brings the solution of eliminating information asymmetry in the construction sector and other related industries as there is no centralized or a consolidated portal for the industry and the nation at large which provides instant information on technological capital, human resource capital, national infrastructure projects, transactional analytics and price and quality guides. The study encourages easy of doing business, entrepreneurship and encourages industrialization by proving a systematic way to the planning and control process. The application that is based on the disruptive innovation in this way facilitates the flow of information, thus improving easy of doing business
