	<title>#BizTrends2026 | Insight Terra's Alastair Bovim: The clean energy transition runs on minerals, and Africa must lead</title>
	<link>https://www.bizcommunity.com/article/the-clean-energy-transition-runs-on-minerals-and-africa-must-lead-840403a</link>

This time, however, the foundations of that transformation are not steam or silicon, but metals and minerals.</description>

	<title>#BizTrends2026 | Sedna's Anton Fester: The digital evolution of safety across Africa’s critical industries</title>
	<link>https://www.bizcommunity.com/article/the-digital-evolution-of-safety-across-africas-critical-industries-849093a</link>

Fatal accidents, equipment failures and human exposure to hazardous environments were often treated as operational realities rather than preventable outcomes. Today, that mindset is undergoing a fundamental shift — and at the heart of this change is the digital evolution of safety.</description>
