Accra, April 15 — The Association of Ghana Industries (AGI) welcomed the leadership of Pangea Africa to its Secretariat in Accra in a high-level engagement aimed at unlocking growth capital for Ghanaian businesses. The delegation from Pangea Africa was led by Mr. John Scicchitano, Senior Vice President and Managing Director, and Ms. Bridget Egbenya, Associate Business Advisor.
The Pangea team was warmly received by Dr. Humphrey Kwesi Ayim Darke, President of AGI; Dr. James Asare-Adjei, Past President; Mr. Seth Twum-Akwaboah, CEO of AGI; along with other executive members of the Association.
The visit marked the introduction of a strategic private equity and venture capital initiative spearheaded by Pangea Africa, under the auspices of the Ghana Investment Support Programme (GhISP) and backed by British International Investment (BII). The initiative is tailored to help high-potential Ghanaian SMEs secure growth capital and technical support to scale operations, generate employment, and deliver sustainable impact.
Target sectors include agribusiness, manufacturing, food security, climate and green industries, as well as enterprises advancing youth and women empowerment. Selected companies will be groomed through a comprehensive investor-readiness program, offering bespoke support such as business diagnostics, governance enhancement, financial documentation, and strategic advisory services.
