# KPMG lead economist Frank Blackmore says changes in the global economy could create new opportunities for Africa. According to Blackmore, rising demand for artificial intelligence, renewable energy and electric vehicles is increasing the need for Africa’s minerals and energy resources. He says African countries need better infrastructure, reliable electricity, skills and processing facilities to attract more investment. Blackmore added affordable and reliable power will also be important for attracting data centres and technology businesses.
