As part of the summit, Dr. Acquaye will join a high-level panel discussion on the theme, “Positioning Ghana as an Agribusiness Investment Hub Beyond Subsistence Agriculture.”
During the session, he is expected to present a compelling case for investment in Ghana’s rapidly evolving agribusiness sector and highlight the immense opportunities available to international investors and business leaders interested in Africa’s agricultural transformation.
The summit will be graced by the President of the Republic of Ghana, His Excellency John Dramani Mahama; the Minister for Trade, Agribusiness and Industry, Elizabeth Ofosu-Adjare; Ghana’s High Commissioner to the United Kingdom and Ireland, H.E. Sabah Zita Benson; and several other distinguished dignitaries from government, business, and development institutions.
Beyond his participation at the summit, Dr. Acquaye will hold a series of strategic meetings with potential investors, development partners, and firms interested in exploring investment opportunities across Ghana’s agribusiness value chains.
Ahead of the summit, Dr. Acquaye has already engaged with representatives of the SEPT Competence Centre at Leipzig University, Germany, to discuss potential collaboration in agritech innovation, agribusiness development, and capacity building for agri-firms in Ghana and across Africa.
Several other high-level engagements have also been scheduled as part of the visit.
The Ghana-UK Investment Summit 2026 seeks to convene government leaders, UK investors, development partners, policymakers, industry leaders, entrepreneurs, and members of the Ghanaian diaspora to explore opportunities, forge strategic partnerships, and catalyse investment into priority sectors of the Ghanaian economy.
The summit is expected to strengthen economic ties and unlock new opportunities for trade and investment between Ghana and the United Kingdom.
