The final forum of the 2025 Citi Business Festival is scheduled for today, Thursday, June 19, at the Alisa Hotel in Accra.

The event will focus on the theme: “Harnessing Agribusiness Potential for Economic Growth: Expanding Agricultural Frontiers and Maximising Productivity in Ghana.”

The forum will explore strategies to unlock Ghana’s vast agricultural potential as a catalyst for economic resilience, job creation and export diversification.

It follows last week’s discussions on tariff reforms and trade competitiveness and is strictly by invitation.

Key speakers include:

  1. Prof. Roger Kanton –  Research Scientist
  2. Davis Korboe, President – Federation of Associations of Ghanaian Exporters (FAGE)
  3. William Nettey – Head of Agribusiness, Absa Bank Ghana
  4. Dr. Mavis Owureku-Asare – Food Scientist and CEO, Impact Food Hub
  5. Bright Edward Kodzo Demordzi – Coordinator, Feed Ghana programme

Starting at 8:30 a.m., the forum will convene stakeholders from agribusiness, finance, academia, and policymaking to generate actionable solutions for revitalising Ghana’s agricultural value chain — from production through to processing and export.

Joining the conversation will be Deputy Minister for Food and Agriculture, John Dumelo.

This event is part of the broader 2025 Citi Business Festival, a month-long initiative powered by 97.3 Citi FM and Channel One TV, aimed at driving innovation and economic transformation in Ghana.
