AmCham Ghana

The @AmChamGhana EEI Committee is turning these discussions into structured advocacy. If you're operating in Ghana's energy or extractives space, these are the policy conversations that matter. #AmChamGhana #USGhana @USEmbassyGhana

On infrastructure: PPPs are the best path forward, but only if regulatory frameworks are stable across political cycles. Project discontinuity is one of the biggest hidden costs for U.S. investors in Ghana.

Ghana's energy sector is at an inflection point. Investors are returning, but local suppliers, EV barriers, and infrastructure gaps are still holding back full potential. Thread from this week's @AmChamGhana EEI Committee meeting. #GhanaEnergy 🔗 Link to full article: bit.ly/4wP5hhx

Ghanaian businesses are being encouraged to explore new pathways for global expansion through strategic partnerships and international financial platforms. At a business forum in Accra on capital growth and global expansion, GIPC’s Dr George Asafo-Agyei highlighted Mauritius as a key financial hub for African enterprises seeking regional and international scale. He reaffirmed Ghana’s commitment to a competitive, private sector-driven economy, noting that ECOWAS and AfCFTA continue to open up major opportunities for growth and cross-border trade. The forum brought together business leaders and investors to explore partnerships in finance, fintech, enterprise development, investment risk management, and regional expansion. #GIPC #InvestmentOpportunities #GhanaMauritius #ECOWASTrade #GhanaIsOpenForBusiness

ABC Nigeria and @AmChamGhana co-hosted the West African Energy Roundtable at OTC 2026 Houston, spotlighting investment, local content, governance, and energy collaboration across West Africa. #Energy #WestAfrica #Investment #OTC2026

The AmCham West Africa Energy Roundtable, held on the margins of the Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) 2026 in Houston, Texas on Wednesday, 6 May 2026, brought together senior government officials, national oil companies, international operators, service companies, and financial institutions from Ghana, Nigeria, and the U.S. private sector to examine one central question: how does West Africa convert its energy potential into durable investment and long-term value? The event was co-hosted by Doris Kafui Afanyedey, Chief Executive Officer of the American Chamber of Commerce Ghana, and Margaret Olele, Chief Executive Officer and Executive Secretary of the American Business Council Nigeria, a partnership that reflected the growing coordination between West Africa’s two leading AmCham platforms. Co-organising partners included the Ghana Investment Promotion Centre (GIPC), the GHANA-HOUSTON CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, and the Nigerian Investment Promotion Commission (NIPC). The roundtable was moderated by Mr. Simon Madjie, Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Investment Promotion Centre, and Mr. Joe Mensah, Senior Vice President and Head of Ghana Business Unit at Kosmos Energy LLC. Together, they guided a high-level conversation grounded in candour: West Africa’s energy significance is rising precisely because global energy markets are fragmented, supply routes are disrupted, and governments worldwide are reassessing energy security. The region’s deepwater capability, growing gas reserves, Atlantic-facing export routes, and established producers position it well, but, as panellists emphasized, relevance alone does not attract capital. Capital is disciplined, and it flows to environments where contracts are stable, infrastructure is in place, and execution risk is manageable. Kindly read the full release here: bit.ly/4nBRNlb

The American Chamber of Commerce in Ghana participated in the Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) 2026 in Houston, Texas, joining global energy leaders, investors, policymakers, and technology innovators at one of the world’s premier energy conferences. For AmCham Ghana, OTC 2026 was more than just a conference. It was an important opportunity to strengthen relationships, deepen conversations around investment and innovation, and position Ghana as a strategic destination for energy and infrastructure partnerships. Throughout the week, the Ghana delegation engaged with U.S. companies, industry executives, and strategic stakeholders on issues shaping the future of the global energy industry, including upstream investment, gas commercialization, energy transition, infrastructure development, local content, and technology-driven solutions for emerging markets. The conference also provided a valuable platform to highlight Ghana’s role as one of West Africa’s most stable and investment-friendly markets, while showcasing opportunities for deeper collaboration between Ghanaian stakeholders and U.S. businesses across the energy value chain. A key highlight for the Chamber was the opportunity to facilitate and support strategic engagements that connected Ghanaian interests with global investors and industry leaders. Discussions focused not only on investment opportunities, but also on how partnerships can drive sustainable growth, innovation, skills development, and long-term economic impact for Ghana and the region. The participation further reinforced AmCham Ghana’s commitment to serving as a bridge between Ghana and the United States business communities, creating platforms for dialogue, partnership, and commercial engagement that support both private sector growth and national development priorities.

One Continent. One market. 54 Nations. Over $3.4 trillion in combined GDP.   AFCFTA is no longer a dream, its happening. The ONE MARKET trade vision is gradually turning Africa’s fragmented economies into a single continental market with wide sign-up, finalized tariffs cut, 90% of tariff lines to be eliminated over the next few years, a successful pilot “the Guided Trade Initiative”, launched on 7th October 2022 in Accra, now operational, testing real trade flows and boosting Intra-African trade by over 50% by 2035.   Since its inception, Ghana has evolved from a founding host Nation for the permanent AFCFTA secretariat to a leading force in its implementation, achieving significant milestones across trade, investment and digital innovation. Looking ahead the future of African trade under AFCFTA is poised for a transformative digital trade surge, E-Commerce, Industrialisation, and Value Addition.    The future is not automatic, it requires political will, private sector drive and continental coordination. But the direction is clear, Africa is moving and that changes everything
