GMA helps bring new Business Toolkit to Ghana!

By William Guyster - Chairman & CEO, March 31, 2008 09:13 PM

Real results are coming to fruition from the technical seeds our volunteers and MBA consultants planted last year. It was the beginning of 2007 when GMA arrived, brand-new, to Ghana and looked for the businesses it would come to help later in the year. Eventually, GMA helped bring over 100 weeks of consulting to Ghana.

One of the things our people did was to contact the World Bank's IFC division and see if we could get them to sponsor their renown SME (Small and Medium Enterprise) Toolkit in Ghana. A few months later, two of our business clients received an invitation to India to receive initial training on this resource. And now, it's finally official!!! The first link below is from this month (March 2008) and talks a little about our client and the resource we helped them obtain. The second link shows some of the companies we've helped, their take on Ghana, and their take on our work!
