Established in 2017, the Future Investments Initiative is an international platform for expert-led debate between global leaders, investors and innovators, with the power to shape the future of global investment.

It is focused on utilising investment to drive growth opportunities and address global challenges.

This year’s event, on the theme: “What’s Next for Global Business”, will attract an influential community of global investors, business leaders, innovators and government officials to discuss the latest trends in global investments and the most promising investment strategies to define partnerships for the future.

A statement signed by the Director of Communications at the Office of the Vice-President, Mr Frank Agyei-Twum, said the Vice-President would deliver an address on Ghana’s investment potential at the African Continent Dialogue Session, participate in a number of sessions and meet with world and business leaders.
