About this listen
On this week’s Bizskoops, we focus on Africa’s green transition with a special focus on the 2026 Africa’s Green Economy Summit in Cape Town, a deal-driven platform connecting global capital with African opportunities in renewable energy, green mobility, water and waste, sustainable agriculture, green buildings, the blue economy and climate tech. Sanlam Investments returns as title sponsor, with Teboho Makhabane highlighting why South Africa’s growth story lies in the blue and green economy and why backing platforms like Africa’s Green Economy Summit is key to catalysing impact.
In investment insights, Todd Micklethwaite, Executive Head: Strategic Initiatives and Partnerships at Sanlam Alternative Investments, unpacks innovative climate finance structures, drawing on Ecuador’s debt-for-climate deal and what similar mechanisms could mean for African markets.
We then move to the intersection of traditional finance, digital assets and climate-focused fintech with Hirander Misra, Chairperson and CEO of GMEX Group, as he explains how ZERO13’s TechSprint award-winning blockchain innovation aims to scale sustainability efforts globally.
Finally, we explore the future of digital talent and energy with Stacey-Lee Bolon, founder of STiiNT, recorded at the 2025 International Commodity Summit in Cape Town. She shares how digital talent marketplaces are reshaping workforce agility in fast-evolving sectors like energy and law and offers practical advice for leaders driving digital transformation in traditional industries.
