Tech, Health And FMCG Sparking Interest Among Investors In Africa: Amne Suedi

Female Entrepreneur and Investment Expert Amne Suedi shares how some sectors have more potential to attract FDI in Africa in recent times.
The African continent is slowly transitioning from receiving deficits and grants to being one of the biggest investment opportunities. While all sectors have witnessed reasonable growth – technology, health and FMCG sectors have the greatest potential to attract FDI in Africa in the future.
Amne Suedi, a legal practitioner and lawyer, with over a decade of experience in investment advisory ‘Shikana Group’ shares her insights. She advises foreign investors on the best solutions that are workable and compliant with the African markets they want to enter into, or are already operating in. She started the business as a way to showcase the different sides of Africa and to ensure that investments really do make an impact. Today, Amne helps foreign investors, international organizations, multinational companies, and even SMEs to invest in Africa. Amne is also set to launch a new jewelry and gemstone business ‘Zambarau’ soon.
As an investment expert, Amne has a wealth of knowledge related to the current market trends and potential investment opportunities. She discusses how certain sectors in Africa are sparking particular interest among investors.
Booming Tech Sector In A Digitized Continent
We have all been aware of COVID-19 and its effects on the world. Amidst the pandemic, we have all seen a rise in technology. Amne suggests, especially in the legal area, we’ve seen increasing adoption of technology. Law firms in Nigeria and other parts of the continent were already steering this way, but there has been a full-scale adoption of technology, not only with the firms, but also with the courts.
Africa has already been witnessing a surge in technology-related investments. This has been a burgeoning tech trend in Nigeria, Kenya, Cape Town and across South Africa. Technology is an exciting space that includes many industries – from artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain, self-driving technologies, smartphones, the ongoing trend to software-as-a-service (SaaS), the Internet of Things (IoT), streaming media services, automobiles, and more. It’s a sector full of investment opportunities as Africa continues to grow on the path to digitization, shares Amne.
More Investment Opportunities
As Amne works with numerous foreign investors on a daily basis, she has observed that deals around infrastructure also continue to attract investments in Africa. Telecom infrastructure, of course, is the backbone of Africa, but even hard infrastructure, like roads, railways, power and electricity are potential investment gold mines! Renewable energy, solar power and gas remain interesting as much of the world relies on Africa for these. Her company, Shikana Group, is also planning to invest in some African business opportunities and the technology education space.
Two other sectors where Amne would like to see more investment, and she suggests would do well in these COVID times, are health and agriculture. Needless to say, the pandemic has led to a growing need for all kinds of healthcare supplies. Then, of course, there is FMCG. Pandemic or not, FMCG products are a necessity, so Amne thinks investments in the food and agricultural sector continue to remain attractive to global investors.

Scaling Success: Why Smart Habits Beat Growth Hacks in Modern eCommerce

There’s a romanticized image of the eCommerce founder: a daring risk-taker chasing the next big idea, fueled by late-night caffeine and last-minute inspiration. But the reality behind scaled, sustainable brands tells a different story. Success in digital commerce doesn’t come from chaos or clever hacks. It comes from habits. Repetitive, structured, often unglamorous habits.
Change, a digital platform created by eCommerce strategist Ryan, builds its entire philosophy around this truth. Through education, mentorship, and infrastructure, Change helps founders shift from scrambling for quick wins to building strong systems that grow with them. The company doesn’t just offer software. It provides the foundation for digital trade, particularly for those in the B2B space.
The Habits That Build Momentum
At the heart of Change’s philosophy are five core habits Ryan considers non-negotiable. These aren’t buzzwords; they’re the foundation of sustainable growth.
First, obsess over data. Successful founders replace guesswork with metrics. They don’t rely on gut feelings. They measure performance and iterate.
Second, know your customer deeply. Not just what they buy, but why they buy. The most resilient brands build emotional loyalty, not just transactional volume.
Third, test fast. Algorithms shift. Consumer behavior changes. High-performing teams don’t resist this; they test weekly, sometimes daily, and adapt.
Fourth, manage time like a CEO. Every decision has a cost. Prioritizing high-impact actions isn’t optional; it’s survival.
Fifth, stay connected to mentorship and learning. The digital market moves quickly. The remaining founders are the ones who keep learning, never assuming they know it all.
Turning Habits into Infrastructure
What begins as personal discipline must eventually evolve into a team structure. Change teaches founders how to scale their systems, not just their sales.
Tools are essential for starting, think Notion for documentation, Asana for project management, Mixpanel or PostHog for analytics, and Loom for async communication. But tools alone don’t create momentum.
Teams need Monday metric check-ins, weekly test cycles, customer insight reviews, just to name a few. Founders set the tone by modeling behavior. It’s the rituals that matter, then, they turn it into company culture.
Ryan puts it simply: “We’re not just building tools; we’re building infrastructure for digital trade.”
Avoiding the Common Traps
Even with structure, the path isn’t always smooth. Some founders over-focus on short-term results, chasing vanity metrics or shiny tactics that feel productive but don’t move the needle.
Others fall into micromanagement, drowning in dashboards instead of building intuition. Discipline should sharpen clarity, not create rigidity. Flexibility is part of the process. Knowing when to pivot is just as important as knowing when to persist.
Scaling Through Self-Replication
In the end, eCommerce scale isn’t just about growing a business. It’s about repeating successful systems at every level. When founders internalize high-performance habits, they turn them into processes, then culture, then legacy.
Growth doesn’t require more motivation. It requires more precision. More consistency. Your calendar, not your to-do list, is your business plan.
In a space dominated by noise and novelty, Change and its founder are quietly reshaping the conversation. They aren’t chasing trends but building resilience, one habit at a time.
