The Automobile Assemblers Association of Ghana will host its maiden Automotive Summit on the 27th of June at the Accra International Conference Centre (AICC) Grand Arena.
The theme for the summit - Creating a New Economic Backbone for Ghana and the Sub-Region - will present the opportunity for leading experts and industry professionals in the sector to discuss the latest trends, challenges and opportunities in the automobile industry.
The summit will also feature an exhibition of over 20 vehicle models locally assembled in Ghana by the members of the AAAG.
“We are delighted to host this maiden summit, which will explore the future of the automobile industry and the technologies and innovations that will shape it. This will give us the opportunity, as a country, to discuss the issues and opportunities impacting businesses and the automobile industry as a whole,” the AAAG President, Mr Jeffrey Oppong Peprah, emphasised.
The AAAG membership include Volkswagen Ghana, Japan Motors, Rana Motors, Kantanka Automobile, Silverstar Ghana and Stallion Group Toyota-Tsusho Company. Associate members are Toyota Ghana and CFAO Motors Ghana.
The event is expected to attract an audience of hundreds of senior-level representatives from across the breadth of the industry, including vehicle manufacturers, component manufacturers, engineers, government, the financial sector, insurance, global organisations and the media.
The panel discussions will address key areas of focus for the automotive ecosystem, including sustainability, competitiveness, standards, the creation of a local used car market, component manufacturing, retail, auto financing and insurance, amongst others.
Speakers will include senior executives from vehicle manufacturers, policymakers and a host of content experts from automotive and aligned industries.
