The US Embassy in Ghana has welcomed the visiting trade mission of The Corporate Council on Africa to Ghana for discussions.
A statement from the US Embassy in Accra on Monday said the visit is to allow trade missions and other US-based companies interested in exploring new business opportunities in Africa to come to the country and meet government officials for the execution of such businesses.
The Trade Mission includes companies interested in exploring business opportunities in a broad array of economic sectors, particularly power; financial services; construction; and technology. Some of the corporations comprising the Trade Mission are: AGS; Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP; Covenant Security Solutions; EAI Information Systems; Essex Construction; International Green Structures; JML Investment Group; and STI Global Ltd.
In honour of the delegation, the Ministry of Trade and Industry will host a forum introducing the American businesses to key Government of Ghana officials. The delegation will then pay a courtesy call on President Mahama and interact with representatives of the local private sector for the remainder of the visit.
Ambassador Cretz welcomed the visitors, stating: “I firmly believe these missions are critical to fostering the exchanges and information-sharing that ensures American companies continue to consider Ghana and partnering with Ghanaian firms as they seek to expand their presence in the regionâ€.
