The expo is also expected to promote the role of Spain through the Gran Canary Islands and encourage the flow of investment in both directions.

According to a statement by Stephen Blessing Ackah, Head of Government Affairs, UAE Africa Mentoring Development Consortium, the expo will promote sustainable tourism as trade was one of the sectors in which Spain occupies international leadership positions and can channel the knowledge and investments that Ghana needs for its development.

"The support for the internalisation of the Spanish economy is reflected in the reinforcement of technical cooperation in the tourism sector and in the promotion of the improvement of air connectivity lines of action.

“This is included in the Plan Africa III of the government of Spain in the framework of the objective of promoting a shared, inclusive and sustainable economic growth," the statement said.
