Global Political Shifts and Their Implications for African Energy

Songhai Advisory is privileged to join a critical discussion on the evolving global political landscape and its profound implications for Africa. This insightful webinar, led by African Energy Founder Jon Marks, will delve into the shifts from traditional powers like the US and China, to the rise of emerging "middle powers" such as the UAE and Turkey, and their impact on the continent.

The expert panel will explore:

  • Making sense of US policy, from aid budgets to backroom deals. Will a new order emerge from the chaos?

  • What role for former colonial powers and emerging players - how far can projects and business interests be separated from issues such as the French military withdrawal from West Africa?

  • Potential changes in the international diplomatic and financial architecture, including the AfDB’s new leadership, Bretton Woods change, BRICS developments and what South Africa hosting the G20 could mean for African energy projects.

  • Political hotspots in the Sahel, Central Africa, the Horn – understanding these deadly crises’ fundamentals and how business should react.

Adedayo Ademuwagun of Songhai Advisory will be sharing his expertise alongside African Energy Founder Jon Marks, Africa Confidential editor Patrick Smith, African Energy editor Marc Howard, and African Energy managing director John Hamilton.

This is a must-join webinar for anyone seeking to navigate the complex interplay of global politics and Africa's energy future. To join the webinar tomorrow (Thursday 31st July 2025 @ 12noon BST (GMT+1)), pls click on the link below.
