European Union to hold forum on ‘Boosting Investments for Sustainable Jobs in Ghana’

The Ghana-EU Business Forum will be held on 13th and 14th June 2019 at the Mövenpick Ambassador Hotel, Accra. The theme for the forum is “Boosting investments for sustainable jobs in Ghana.”

The theme emphasises the forum’s main objective of increasing the awareness of the EU External Investment Plan and in particular its innovative financing instruments in Ghana, and to promote partnerships between International and Local Financial Institutions with potential beneficiaries to promote business opportunities between Ghana and the EU.

• Sustainable energy and sustainable connectivity;

• Micro, small and medium enterprises financing; and
