World Trade Centre Ghana Conference
Location: London
Attendees: 75 People
VIPs: Senior Ghana Diplomats and Business people
With less than a weeks notice, I was asked to organise a business conference for 20+ Ghanaian companies (CEOs & Directors) seeking joint venture partnerships and investment from UK companies across key sectors including Health care, Infrastructure, Finance and Automobiles.
Within a week, I was able to confirm speakers from the Department of Trade, Department for International trade, UK Export Finance and various UK Chambers of Commerce. Since I was involved in the organisation of the conference I was keen to make sure that each Ghanaian company was paired with a UK counterpart.
Not only did I organise the event, but I also hosted it moderating panels on Ghana’s investment opportunities and how UK companies can create joint ventures with Ghanaian companies. Feedback from the event was excellent, with successful partnerships made… Job Done
What I learned: The importance of making sure that there is follow up after the event. My role as an MC doesn’t stop when the event is over, it ends when relationships are made.
