Acorn & Partners

Our commitment to optimising Africa’s mineral and renewable resources is the foundation of everything we do.

Our Mission

At Acorn & Partners, we are committed to optimising Africa’s critical minerals and renewable energy resources by driving strategic, data-driven decision-making. Our work shapes regulatory and investment frameworks that attract both indigenous and foreign direct investments (FDI) while ensuring the sustainable management, conservation, and restoration of the continent’s rich mineral wealth and natural ecosystems. By harnessing these resources efficiently and ethically, we create resilient, high-value local supply chains that fuel long-term economic growth.

Harnessing Africa’s Resource Potential

Our commitment to optimising and driving strategic decisions across critical minerals and renewable energy underpins everything we do. With the continent holding 40% of the world’s reserves, it plays a vital role in redefining global supply chains for the energy transition. True economic transformation lies in unlocking value at every stage -from extraction, processing and refining to trade, risk management and sustainability. We serve as strategic partners to governments, businesses and global investors, helping them realise the full potential of their resources. Backed by deep industry expertise, a global network and advanced data-driven solutions, we enable the shift from raw commodity export to a high-value industrial ecosystem that drives growth, development and long-term prosperity.

Our Vision

Africa possesses a vast proportion of the world’s minerals and renewable energy potential but has yet to fully capitalise on the global transition to clean energy and advanced technologies. The lack of diverse market intelligence and strategic insights has hindered the continent’s ability to seize the benefits of this mineral boom. Our vision is to bridge this gap by providing global decision-makers with world-class intelligence, expert advisory, and AI-powered analytics. Through independent consulting, in-house expertise, real-time reporting, and market-driven insights, we empower stakeholders to make informed investment decisions, foster sustainable industries, and position the continent as a global leader in critical minerals and energy transformation.
