- President John Dramani Mahama has presented Ghana’s flagship “catalytic projects” to global investors at the 8th Africa-Singapore Business Forum, urging private sector leaders to seize emerging opportunities in the country’s infrastructure and industrial transformation drive.
He highlighted priority initiatives such as the Legon Pharmaceutical Innovation Park, designed to boost local drug manufacturing; the Kumasi Machinery and Technology Park, aimed at supporting agro-processing and light industries; the Akosombo-Juapong Garments and Textiles Park, which seeks to revive Ghana’s textile industry; and the establishment of Digital TVET Centres of Excellence to train a skilled workforce for the modern economy.
President Mahama also pointed to Ghana’s planned renewable energy corridors, which will diversify the country’s power mix and open space for green investments.
According to him, these projects sit at the heart of Ghana’s “Big Push Infrastructure” programme, an ambitious plan to scale up roads, power supply, and digital connectivity across the country. He stressed that by creating the right infrastructure backbone, Ghana will generate the level of demand and economic activity that attracts major foreign and local investments.
The President told the gathering of business leaders and policymakers that Ghana is positioning itself as a competitive gateway to the African market, leveraging its stable democracy, youthful workforce, and central role in the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA).
