Accra, May 3, GNA – President John Dramani Mahama has arrived in Libreville, Gabon, to participate in the inaugural Libreville International Forum for Innovation and Development.
The high-level forum brings together Heads of State, government officials, global investors and technology experts to deliberate on strategies for inclusive growth on the African continent.
A statement issued by Mr Felix Kwakye Ofosu, Presidential Spokesman and Minister of State in charge of Government Communications, said the forum is being held under the patronage of President Brice Clotaire Oligui Nguema of Gabon.
It said the forum is on the theme: “Political Stability, Business Climate, and Artificial Intelligence: Catalysts for Growth.”
The statement noted that the forum seeks to position Gabon as a regional innovation hub and a key destination for international investment.
According to the organisers, the event also serves to inaugurate the newly constructed Omar Bongo Ondimba Congress Centre, which will host the forum and serve as a future centre for international dialogue.
The forum will culminate in the adoption of the Libreville Declaration, outlining the commitments of political leaders to strengthening governance, transparency and digital integration across Africa.
President Mahama, the statement said, remains a strong advocate of partnerships that bridge government policy and private-sector growth to ensure inclusive and sustainable development.
