Youth activist charity Young Professionals and Youth Coalition (YPYC) has released the list of distinguished individuals and corporate entities to be conferred with coveted, prestigious awards at the 15th Transform Summit scheduled to take place on Saturday, July 6 at the Great Hall of the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, Kumasi.
Under the auspices of His Majesty Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, the 15th MTN Pulse Africa Transform Summit on the theme: ’15 years of transformational leadership’, will feature top-notch speakers including former Presidents John Agyekum Kufuor and John Mahama, Vice-Chancellor of KNUST Prof. Akosua Dickson and Mr. Sam Jonah of Jonah Capital.
Conference host and YPYC founder Dr. Andy Osei Okrah, announcing the upcoming event to the media in Accra, said an innovation to this year’s event is the invitation of 15 previous award winners to interact and share experiences with budding and fledgling entrepreneurs and young leaders.
“They will serve as conduits, indeed conveyor belts transmitting knowledge, expertise and hands-on experience to boost productivity,” he stressed.
Mr. Okrah said the 2024 Summit is a business agenda-setting forum where academia and industry’s finest would converge and distill ideas to propel Ghana to the next level of economic growth.
He highlighted credentials of conference speakers and promised cutting-edge deliveries from industry players with proven track records in running blue-chip companies.
The 2024 award winners, competitively voted for by the teeming and discerning patrons, span the entire spectrum of society from industry, media, business, public service, forestry, academia and politics.
The statement commended media partners and sponsors whose combined, annual support has pushed and expanded the frontiers of youth development and growth.
