Ghanaian business leaders participating in the 2026 edition of the Kwahu Business Forum will be granted the rare privilege of attending an exclusive dinner hosted by President John Dramani Mahama.
This session, serving as the climax of the inaugural day of the widely anticipated Kwahu Business Forum, will afford these captains of industry an opportunity to engage in profound and riveting dialogues with President Mahama.
Set to be held at the newly constructed Kwahu Convention Centre located on the scenic Mpraeso Hills in the Eastern Region, the session has been billed for an extensive conversation between President Mahama and the business leaders.
In line with the spirit of Easter, the night will be further enriched by musical performances from renowned Ghanaian artistes Stonebwoy and Kwabena Kwabena.
The duo will serenade President Mahama and his gathering of the nation’s most successful entrepreneurs with some of the finest songs.
During the meeting, President Mahama will articulate his administration’s economic policies and elaborate on how his administration will be executing strategic initiatives like the Kwahu Business Forum to ignite entrepreneurial spirit and propel sustainable business growth.
It is anticipated that the President will also solicit candid feedback from these accomplished business titans regarding his government’s ongoing efforts to streamline investment facilitation and catalyse robust expansion across Ghana’s private sector.
The three-day Kwahu Business Forum gets underway today, April 3, 2026, with over 1000 participants expected to participate in the forum, which sets out to provide a platform for entrepreneurs to engage with their potential investors.
Key features of the 2026 edition include networking opportunities for small, medium, and large businesses, investor matchmaking sessions, and a trade exhibition where companies can showcase their products and services.
The Friday session will feature an official opening ceremony which will be graced by leading government officials, a tour of the exhibition centre, and high-level panel discussions.
Selected business leaders from the Kwahu enclave will also share their inspirational success stories and offer valuable insights to the youth on building sustainable businesses.
The day will also include masterclasses on various business topics and will culminate in a presidential dinner.
Saturday’s proceedings will continue with industry leaders delivering keynote addresses with President Mahama present. The Governor of the Bank of Ghana is expected to join later in the day to deliver a special address on the economy and engage in discussions with business leaders.
The event will climax with a health walk in the Kwahu Business Village, where participants will take part in the 1,000-step exercise.
Later that day, leaders of banking institutions will hold closed-door meetings with the Bank of Ghana on economic matters.
