The newly appointed Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Investment Promotion Centre (GIPC), Mr. Simon Madjie, has met with management and staff to familiarize himself with the team and share his vision for the organization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr. Madjie, who received a warm welcome from the Centre, acknowledged the team\u2019s remarkable efforts over the years in enhancing its services but emphasized that more work remains to be done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First on his list is the goal of strengthening collaboration with key ministries and government agencies to create a more cohesive approach to attracting Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) into the country. By fostering stronger partnerships, he aims to streamline processes, align national development priorities with investor interests, and ultimately drive sustainable economic growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He also outlined plans to map investment opportunities in every district across the country to effectively market them to prospective investors during the Centre\u2019s sensitization tours. As part of this strategy, he aims to have regional directors in all 16 regions to oversee the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt is very important that in our investment promotion efforts, we speak about the country\u2019s opportunities with specific data, not generic assertions\u201d he opined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr. Madjie further revealed plans to establish an ‘AfCFTA Desk’ at GIPC to coordinate the Centre\u2019s efforts in promoting and leveraging the African Continental Free Trade Area. He believes this will provide a more structured approach to positioning Ghana for investments under the promising regional trade pact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He also highlighted plans to continue and finalize the review of the GIPC Act, initiated under the previous leadership, while improving the Centre\u2019s turnaround time for key registration processes. He added that some of GIPC\u2019s activities will be realigned and repurposed to take full advantage of the government\u2019s 24-hour economy policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI intend to build the capacity of the GIPC team to ensure that we all have the required skillset for the future we want to create. It is crucial that we work collaboratively \u2013 both internally as a team and externally with partners to move the country forward\u201d the CEO told the staff.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
