The Ministry of Environment, Science, Technology and Innovation (MESTI), in collaboration with the Ghana Enterprises Agency (GEA), held a three-day roundtable discussion on Technology and Innovation for the competitiveness of Micro, Small, and Medium Scale Enterprises (MSMEs) in Accra from Tuesday, February 11-13, 2025.

The event forms part of the implementation of the Ghana Jobs and Skills Project.

The roundtable highlighted successful technology partnerships between scientific research institutions in Ghana and the UK and their local business partners, demonstrating how their partnerships have resulted in the development of new products and jobs.

This initiative, funded by the Foreign Commonwealth Development Office (FCDO) through UK Research and Innovation (UKRI), served as a proof of concept for adoption by SMEs and research and knowledge institutions.
