President John Dramani Mahama is set to host an exclusive high-level dinner with some of Ghana’s leading business figures as part of activities marking the 2026 Kwahu Business Forum.
The event, scheduled to take place at the Kwahu Convention Centre, is expected to serve as a major highlight of the three-day forum, creating a rare platform for direct engagement between government and the private sector.
Organisers say the dinner will bring together captains of industry for strategic discussions with the President on Ghana’s economic future, investment climate and private sector growth. The engagement is expected to allow President Mahama to outline his administration’s economic direction while receiving direct feedback from business leaders.
The evening will also feature live performances from Ghanaian artistes Stonebwoy and Kwabena Kwabena, blending policy dialogue with entertainment in a relaxed setting aimed at deepening relationships between policymakers and entrepreneurs.
The Kwahu Business Forum 2026, which begins on April 3, is projected to attract more than 1,000 participants, including entrepreneurs, investors and policymakers. The forum is designed to drive investment conversations, facilitate business networking and promote policy engagement across key sectors of the economy.
Activities on the opening day will include an official ceremony attended by senior government officials, exhibition tours and panel discussions focusing on critical areas of economic development. Participants will also take part in masterclasses led by experienced business leaders, particularly from the Kwahu enclave, who will share insights on building resilient enterprises.
On the second day, discussions will continue with keynote addresses from industry leaders, including a special presentation by the Governor of the Bank of Ghana on monetary policy and broader economic trends.
The forum will conclude with a health walk at the Kwahu Business Village, alongside closed-door meetings between banking executives and the central bank, aimed at addressing emerging economic challenges and strengthening collaboration within Ghana’s financial sector.
