In a significant move to bolster the SME sector, President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has launched the SME Growth and Opportunity (SMEs GO) programme. This initiative, spearheaded by the Ministries of Finance and Trade and Industry, and partner agencies, aims to provide coordinated financial and technical support to high-growth potential SMEs, driving economic growth and development.
The SMEs GO programme is designed to address the challenges faced by SMEs in Ghana, including limited access to finance, technical support, and market opportunities. By providing tailored support to high-growth potential SMEs, the program aims to unlock their potential, create jobs, and drive economic growth.
President Akufo-Addo emphasized the importance of SMEs in Ghana’s economic development, stating that they are the backbone of the economy and have the potential to drive growth and create jobs. He commended the Ministries of Finance and Trade and Industry, and partner agencies, for their collaborative effort in launching the SMEs GO programme.
The launch of the SMEs GO programme is a testament to the government’s commitment to supporting SMEs and promoting economic growth and development in Ghana. With this initiative, SMEs in Ghana can expect to receive the support they need to thrive and contribute to the country’s economic prosperity.
