KPMG to Host Inaugural West Africa CEO Outlook Forum in Ghana, On Wednesday

KPMG will hold its inaugural West Africa CEO Outlook Forum in Ghana on Wednesday, October 23, 2024, at the Kempinski Hotel. The forum aims to bring together top executives and thought leaders from the sub-region to discuss key issues that are shaping West Africa’s business landscape.

The main topics for discussion will include the Economic Outlook, Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Talent/People. This exclusive forum provides a platform for selected CEOs to engage in meaningful conversations on emerging trends and challenges in these critical areas.

With a focus on driving sustainable business practices, attendees will explore how AI can enhance productivity and the importance of talent upskilling in an evolving workplace.

KPMG’s CEO Outlook survey shows that 64% of global CEOs are committed to investing in AI, despite economic conditions, as they view it as a transformative technology that is essential for business growth.

In addition, the forum will address the shifting dynamics in workforce management, particularly the return-to-office debate. Findings from the CEO Outlook indicate that while some CEOs are advocating for a return to pre-pandemic working conditions, others recognize the need for flexibility and a stronger alignment with employees’ work-life balance expectations.

With insights into future trends and leadership strategies, the KPMG West Africa CEO Outlook Forum promises to shape the strategic direction of businesses across the region.
