Building an AI Roadmap Against a Moving Frontier
Half of an AI roadmap is a bet that the frontier will not absorb the feature before it ships. The other half is what survives when it does.

A resource and corridor economy defined by world-scale LNG potential, three trade corridors into landlocked neighbours, and a live security constraint in the north.
Mozambique presents a sharp split between the north and the rest of the country. Cabo Delgado's LNG resource is genuinely world-scale but has been subject to insurgency-driven delay; the Maputo, Beira and Nacala corridors serving South Africa, Zimbabwe, Zambia and Malawi operate on entirely different risk terms. Clients should evaluate this market by asset location and corridor, never nationally. Debt history and currency management add treasury complexity that should be structured before commitment.
The concentrated exposures are security in Cabo Delgado, foreign exchange availability, cyclone and flood risk on the coast and corridors, and sovereign debt history affecting financing terms. Corridor-based logistics and agri-industrial investments carry materially different risk than northern gas assets.

Gas value chain services
Supply, marine and logistics services positioned around phased LNG development.
Corridor infrastructure
Port, rail and inland terminal capacity serving four landlocked or import-dependent neighbours.
Power export
Hydropower and transmission projects supplying the Southern African Power Pool.

Half of an AI roadmap is a bet that the frontier will not absorb the feature before it ships. The other half is what survives when it does.

Every AI customer carries a quality obligation that classical software never had. Delivery cost is where AI margin quietly disappears.

The AI growth ceiling is a design problem disguised as a demand problem. Hiring more sellers usually reaches a slower version of the same wall.
