News Summary:
The Citi Business Festival's third roundtable discussion focused on Ghana’s automotive assembly industry on June 25, 2026, examining its role in industrialisation, job creation, and long-term economic growth. Previously, on June 22, the festival highlighted that small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) risk missing future growth opportunities without digital adoption, with Npontu Technologies' Chief Marketing and Operations Officer, Deborah Asmah, noting that the real cost lies in inefficiencies rather than digital transformation expenses. The week-long Management Bootcamp of the 2026 Citi Business Festival, an intensive executive development program by Channel One TV and Citi FM, commenced on June 21, designed to equip professionals, entrepreneurs, and corporate executives with leadership and strategic management skills. This followed a second roundtable discussion where experts, on June 19, called for deliberate and coordinated efforts to build functional cities, arguing that urban competitiveness is a key driver of investment, productivity, and economic growth. The discussion, which focused on building competitive cities, had been scheduled for June 15, 2026, bringing together policymakers, urban development experts, financiers, and industry leaders to propose measures for driving long-term economic growth.
