Speaking at the handover, UNDP Ghana Resident Representative, Niloy Banerjee, commended GEA for its critical role in supporting Ghanaian entrepreneurs and driving economic development.
“Ghana’s economic transformation will be driven by the growth and success of its MSMEs. We deeply appreciate the work GEA is doing and are excited to contribute to this important agenda,” he said.
