The maiden edition of the Ghana CEO Summit is slated for November 20, 2017 at the Kempinksi Gold Coast Hotel in Accra, Chief Executive Officer of the Chief Executive Network Ghana Limited, Mr. Ernest De-Graft Egyir has stated.
The event is expected to bring together business leaders, stakeholders, investors, service providers, regulators as well as government representative to engage in issues relevant to the Small and Medium Enterprise space.
According to the Chief Executive Network Ghana limited CEO, the event will also create the platform for SME CEOs and industry professionals to improve the quality and profitability of their enterprises through shared experiences and personal growth strategies.
“The summit will enable global SME, stakeholders and local SME CEOs to integrate and interact with world class experts to foster knowledge acquisition, learning, partnerships and synergies to drive increased personal as well as organisational growth,” Mr. De-Graft Egyir said.
Touching on the theme for the summit, Mr De-graft said there is an established fact that economic growth or development in the country does not commensurate with the level of employment.
“There is no inclusive growth so the growth that we are advocating is that, while the GDP grows, poverty must decline,” he said.
Meanwhile more than 400 SME CEOs have registered to participate in the event.
