MIE Events is proud to announce a Memorandum of Understanding signed between two institutions united by a shared commitment to economic empowerment, entrepreneurship, and inclusive development across Africa.

International Trade Council (ITC) and the Centre for Entrepreneurship and Evaluation Development (CEED Ghana) formalised a cooperation framework, bringing together a leading global trade body and one of Ghana's most active youth and women-focused development organisations.

This partnership reflects the spirit and ambition of the Ghana Investment and Trade Week, where both organisations share a platform dedicated to unlocking Ghana's economic potential.

The MOU establishes a framework for collaboration across trade facilitation, entrepreneurship development, capacity building, and the advancement of inclusive economic participation for youth and women-led enterprises.

The timing carries particular significance. GITW 2026 arrives at a defining moment for Ghana, as the country drives forward its 24-hour economy mandate, a bold national policy framework designed to accelerate productivity, attract investment, and expand formal economic participation across all sectors and all hours.

Ghana Investment and Trade Week 7th Edition, co-located with Africa Build Show 4th Edition and Megawatt Africa 3rd Edition, convened at The Palms
Convention Center, Accra, drawing investors, government officials, trade bodies, and private sector leaders from across Africa and beyond.

The platform brought together over 7,000 visitors, 100+ exhibitors, delegates from 30+ countries, and 50+ high-level conference sessions across three co-located shows, making it one of West Africa's most significant trade and investment gatherings of the year.

MIE Events is proud to announce a landmark Memorandum of Understanding signed between two leading institutions advancing trade, investment, and professional excellence in Ghana and beyond.

International Trade Council and the Ghana Institution of Surveyors (GhIS) formalised a cooperation framework signed by Ranjani Rangan, Chairperson of the International Trade Council, and Emmanuel Kofi Cobbold, President of the Ghana Institution of Surveyors.

This partnership brings together a global trade body and Ghana's national professional surveying institution to collaborate across four key areas: promoting sustainable investment and responsible land governance; strengthening professional capacity through joint education, training, and Continuing Professional Development; facilitating knowledge exchange across real estate, infrastructure, and international trade; and expanding Alternative Dispute Resolution awareness and practice for commercial and cross-border matters.

As the Strategic Partner of the Ghana Investment and Trade Week, the International Trade Council continues to deepen its commitment to building the frameworks that make African markets more investable, more transparent, and more connected to global trade networks.

We congratulate both organisations on this significant milestone.
