"The Angolan economy has undergone a period of transformation and has emerged as the fastest growing economy in Africa due to its wealth of natural resources," said De Carvalho.

Dimension Data expects to serve the multinational corporations operating in Angola's oil industry, some of whom are existing clients at the international level.
