In her welcome address, the Chief Executive Officer of the GIPC, Mawuena Trebarh stated that this year’s edition focused on ways to expand Ghana’s manufacturing sector.
According to her, Ghana must prioritize manufacturing if it is to progress to a first-class economy.
“The theme for this year, ‘Manufacturing, Steering Ghana’s Development’, could not have been more appropriate given that the country is in an era where government’s focus is on leveraging investments inmanufacturing,” she said.
According to her, the need for industrialisation and manufacturing is motivated by the centre’s goal for massive import substitution.
She pointed out that, the GIPC as the lead investment promotion agency in the country, has over the few years prioritized the manufacturing sector as a major opportunity area for both local and foreign companies.
