The Government of Ghana, under President John Dramani Mahama, has set an ambitious goal to establish over 600 new enterprises by the end of his term.
This initiative is tied to the Kwahu Business Forum, scheduled for April 19, 2025, which aims to connect financial institutions with the private sector to explore investment opportunities and policy support.
Chief of Staff Julius Debrah addressing the media today, April 14, 2025, highlighted the forum’s potential to boost the economy by injecting capital, creating jobs, and enhancing tax revenues.
Each participating bank is expected to support at least five viable projects annually, with plans to continue this support over the next four years.
This approach aligns with the president’s vision of fostering a robust and inclusive business environment.
The forum will serve as a platform for dialogue, bringing together stakeholders to discuss innovative financing models and strategies to strengthen Ghana’s business climate.
Debrah emphasized that the initiative aims to stimulate local economies, generate employment, and leave a lasting legacy of economic growth and collaboration.
