The Summit aims at providing a platform for structured dialogue between government and the private sector on critical areas of interest to the private sector.

Speaking at the opening ceremony of the two-day inaugural Presidential Business Summit at the Kempinski hotel gold coast city under the theme: “Public-Private dialogue on the role of the Private Sector in Ghana’s Post COVID-19 Economic Recovery”, President Akufo-Addo said a strong private sector is the surest way for the Ghanaian economy to fully recover from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.

“The thematic areas and sectors selected for deliberations during this two-day presidential business summit have been carefully chosen to ensure that the outcome will be an actionable “Business Compact” with clear commitments for both government and the private sector” Akufo-Addo said.

“Government will ensure the fulfillment of its obligations under this Compact and I hope that you, private sector operators will also do the same” the President added.
