Ghana's healthcare industry has an opportunity to become a productive industry in its own right.

The ambition is to build local capacity to manufacture medical equipment, produce pharmaceuticals, develop technology, commercialise research and create products that can serve Ghana and compete across African markets.

This is the kind of productive capacity the 24-Hour Economy and Accelerated Export Development Programme is seeking to build across priority sectors.

The 24-Hour Economy and Accelerated Export Development Programme participated in the 2026 China-West Africa Medical and Health Industry Expo, engaging healthcare professionals, manufacturers, investors, researchers and technology companies on the opportunities within Ghana's healthcare industry. The Expo brought together stakeholders from across China and West Africa to explore partnerships across healthcare, technology, trade, academia, industry and project development.

At the event, the Secretariat showcased the 24H+ vision for developing healthcare as a productive sector of the economy, while engaging participants on how they can participate in and benefit from the Programme. The Secretariat also led discussions on the development of the Legon Pharmaceutical Innovation Park (LePIP) as an opportunity to strengthen pharmaceutical manufacturing, research, innovation and technology transfer in Ghana.

The engagement forms part of the Programme's ongoing implementation efforts to build productive capacity, attract investment and develop industries that can serve Ghana and compete in regional and global markets.

The 24-Hour Economy is often reduced to working longer hours or introducing night shifts. Its ambition is much broader.

It is about reorganising how Ghana produces, moves, processes and exports goods by connecting infrastructure, industry, logistics, finance and markets into one productive system. The Volta Economic Corridor is one of the flagship projects designed to bring that vision to life.

The 24-Hour Economy and Accelerated Export Development Secretariat, the Volta River Authority (VRA) and the Ghana Infrastructure Investment Fund (GIIF) officially commenced negotiations on a Master Concession Agreement for the development of the Volta Economic Corridor, marking another major milestone in implementing one of the Programme's flagship projects.

The Volta Economic Corridor is designed to unlock the full economic potential of the Volta Lake and its surrounding assets by strengthening agriculture, industry, logistics and trade, while attracting private investment, expanding exports and creating sustainable employment opportunities across the country.

The inaugural negotiations brought together the Chief of Staff, Hon. Dr. Julius Debrah, Presidential Adviser Augustus "Goosie" Tanoh, the leadership of VRA and GIIF, and the negotiating teams from the three institutions to begin the legal, financial and technical work required to structure the Corridor's development.

As implementation of the 24-Hour Economy and Accelerated Export Development Programme progresses, the Secretariat continues to advance the strategic partnerships, institutional collaboration and implementation frameworks required to deliver transformational projects that strengthen Ghana's productive economy.
