Chief Executives Network Ghana Limited in partnership with Deloitte, Ghana Institute of Management of Public Administration (GIMPA) Law School and Emerge Ghana Limited is organizing the first ever Ghana CEO’s Summit and Awards in Ghana.

At the heart of the development and growth of any company is the capacity of the CEO to lead management team members and employees to attain shared corporate performance goals in the most efficient and effective manner.

With the adoption of new technologies, integration of regional markets, flow of private capital and other changes in the business world today, it is imperative that business leaders and CEO’s stay abreast with the evolving tides of business to keep up with the knowledge and information gap that emerges as a direct result of these changes.

This is the gap Ghana CEO’s Summit seeks to fill through its annual summit of business leaders and entrepreneurs.

The knowledge sessions, which will be led by world-class experts and business champions, will tap into landfills of the business knowledge of the plethora of CEOs. These industry biased round tables discussions will enable peer to peer knowledge sharing and troubleshooting, complemented by networking sessions.
