The Ghana Investment Promotion Centre (GIPC) has officially extended the application deadline for the highly regarded Ghana Club 100 Awards, now set for October 11, 2024. This announcement, made by GIPC’s CEO, Mr. Yofi Grant, is intended to provide additional opportunities for eligible companies to apply and secure a position among the nation’s top 100 businesses. The Ghana Club 100 Awards emphasize the importance of recognizing and celebrating excellence in the Ghanaian business sector, promoting competition and innovation among firms.
To be eligible for the awards, companies must be structured as limited liability firms. Notably, firms with government ownership can participate in the competition, provided that governmental stake is less than 50%. This rule ensures a competitive landscape where private enterprises can be acknowledged alongside those with some level of governmental involvement, broadening the spectrum of participants and contributions to the economy. This inclusive directive is designed to foster greater interest and engagement in the awards.
Mr. Grant highlighted the importance of this initiative by urging interested companies to complete their applications through the GIPC website. The streamlined application process signifies GIPC’s commitment to accessibility and transparency in promoting Ghanaian business endeavors. By extending the deadline, companies have more time to prepare their submissions, thereby enhancing the quality and diversity of applications received for this year’s competition.

The event is designed to include executive networking sessions, allowing companies to connect, share insights, and explore potential collaborations that could lead to dynamic business opportunities.
