The Kwahu Business Forum is currently taking place at the Mpraeso Social Centre in the Eastern Region, where experts have gathered to discuss national economic strategies and policies.
The event features high-profile personalities, including President John Dramani Mahama, Minister of Finance Dr Cassiel Ato Forson, and other key members of his economic team.
Themed “The Future of Business: The Role of the Financial Sector,” the forum seeks to explore ways to enhance and support the growth of Ghana’s business landscape.
The initiative is part of a government agenda to accelerate local enterprise development, with a target of supporting over 600 businesses by the end of President Mahama’s current term.
Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) of various financial institutions are present to share insights on improving the country’s economic prospects.
Renowned governance experts and economists are also participating as panelists, discussing how the financial sector can help stimulate business activity and strengthen the national economy.
The event is attracting significant public interest, coinciding with the ongoing 2025 Kwahu Easter festivities.
There are also plans to transform the Kwahu Business Forum into a national platform that attracts entrepreneurs from across the country.
Chief of Staff Julius Debrah hinted at future collaborations, including potential involvement from the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) and other key public institutions.
With strong presidential backing and growing public-private collaboration, the Kwahu Business Forum is poised to become a key driver of entrepreneurship and economic transformation in Ghana.
