Invest Africa, the leading pan-African trade and investment platform, has announced that H.E. John Dramani Mahama, President of the Republic of Ghana, will serve as Guest of Honour and deliver the keynote address at The Africa Debate 2026, taking place on Wednesday, 3 June at the historic Guildhall in London.
The announcement coincides with the launch of a strategic partnership between Invest Africa and the Ghana High Commission London, including the Ghana Investment Summit, aimed at strengthening trade and investment collaboration between Ghana and the UK.
Now in its 12th year, The Africa Debate is the UK’s premier platform for high-level dialogue on Africa’s economic future. The 2026 theme, “Redefining Partnership: Navigating a World in Transition,” will explore global economic and geopolitical shifts and their implications for investment, growth, and sustainable development across Africa.
H.E. President Mahama’s keynote will follow opening remarks by the UK Government and set the stage for in-depth discussions on regional leadership and strengthening partnerships in key sectors. Ghana’s role as a leader in sustainability and innovation will be central to this year’s agenda.
Chantelé Carrington, CEO of Invest Africa, said:
“We are honoured to welcome H.E. President Mahama at a moment of real momentum in Ghana’s investment story. His leadership in green growth, regional integration, financial services, and the digital economy has positioned Ghana as one of Africa’s most investable economies.”
H.E. Sabah Zita Benson, High Commissioner of Ghana in London, added:
“Hosting President Mahama offers an opportunity to move from dialogue to decisive action, mobilising investment, strengthening partnerships, and delivering tangible impact across Ghana and beyond.”
The Africa Debate 2026 will feature presidential and ministerial keynotes, high-level plenaries, and curated side events convening 800+ senior stakeholders from government, finance, and industry. Sessions will focus on redefining partnerships in finance, digitalisation, agribusiness, and energy security to drive resilient and sustainable growth across Africa.
