As the Chairman, I officially launched the Ghana House in Glasgow initiative, with a strong call for it to become a lasting platform for economic growth rather than a temporary feature of the Commonwealth Games during the Press Launch in the UK.
Addressing guests during the press launch, I emphasized that Ghana House is designed to deliver long-term economic benefits by attracting investment, expanding export opportunities, and strengthening international partnerships. This initiative should create meaningful outcomes that extend well beyond the duration of the Games.
The Ghana House must translate into tangible opportunities for businesses, entrepreneurs, and the country as a whole. This is important because Ghana House must not end with an event in Glasgow. It must lead to real opportunities, real partnerships and real outcomes for Ghana. The programme will serve as a comprehensive platform encompassing trade and investment promotion, tourism and destination marketing, cultural and creative arts showcases, export development, diaspora engagement, youth employment and labour exchange opportunities, sports diplomacy, media and publicity, business-to-business meetings, exhibition participation, and structured follow-up mechanisms after the Games.
At the launch I also highlighted the need for stronger financial backing to ensure the success of the initiative. Funding is one of the most pressing challenges hence I appeal to Corporate Ghana, sponsors, development partners, business leaders, and members of the Ghanaian diaspora to contribute towards this project.
Together we can make a difference ❤️
