Ghana Sports Conference set for July 31

Perception Management International (PMI), is set to host the Ghana Sports Conference 2025 which seeks to bring together sports stakeholders, policymakers, athletes, and industry leaders for a national conversa­tion on the future of sports in Ghana.

Slated for July 31 at the Kofi Annan In­ternational Peacekeeping Training Centre (KAIPTC).

Under the theme: ‘Elevate, Excel, Empower: Shaping Ghana’s Sporting Des­tiny,’ this landmark event will help address critical challenges and opportunities in Ghanaian sports from grassroots develop­ment to the business of sports and athlete welfare.

The conference will showcase engaging panel discussions, keynote speeches, and interactive sessions aimed at exploring strategic solutions to advance the sports industry in Ghana.

It also seeks to develop a roadmap for sustainable growth by promoting collabo­rations among government agencies, pri­vate sector investors, sports associations, and development organisations.

The conference will cover a range of pressing issues shaping the country’s sports sector, such as the future of Gha­naian football, the business of sports in Ghana, empowering women in Ghanaian Sports, youth development and grassroots sports, and sports and social impact, among others.

According to Mr Martin Ankrah, Direc­tor at PMI, the Ghanaian sporting sector had long been a source of national pride, yet it faced significant challenges, includ­ing inadequate funding, underdeveloped infrastructure, and limited commercial investment.

“This conference will provide a plat­form for honest discussions on the way forward, aligning with national priorities to make sports a powerful driver of economic growth and social cohesion,” he elaborated.

“By the end of the conference, stake­holders are expected to commit to policies and partnerships that will drive significant improvements in the sports sector. Ad­ditionally, recommendations from panel discussions and working groups will be compiled into a strategic framework that can guide future investments and policy decisions,” he added.

The Ghana Sports Conference 2025 will bring together key industry players, in­cluding the Ministry of Youth and Sports, the Ghana Football Association (GFA), corporate sponsors, sports media, and international development organisations.

As Ghana seeks to redefine its sports landscape, the Ghana Sports Conference 2025 offers an unparalleled opportunity to be part of a transformative dialogue.

The Conference is a premier platform for discussions on the growth and devel­opment of sports in Ghana.

It catalyses innovative policies, invest­ment strategies, and collaborations aimed at advancing the country’s sports industry.
