After a successful 24 months on television across West and South Africa and a successful launch on GHOne TV in Ghana with the series Under 40 CEOs, there has been increased demand from emerging and aspiring young business leaders for offline engagements and the opportunity to have these ones interact directly with the established young business leaders. Hence, the Under 40 CEOs Forum.
With the diaspora edition of the forum scheduled for 2018 in London, United Kingdom and a well-attended and impactful session in Lagos, Nigeria, the Ghana forum holding in Accra is expected to be grand.
