Finance Minister to address Canada-Guyana Chamber gala

Guyana’s Minister of Finance, Dr. Ashni Singh, is to deliver the keynote address at the upcoming inaugural Gala of the Canada-Guyana Chamber of Commerce.

The Gala and fundraiser will take place on September 24th at the Hilton Markham Suites Hotel in the Greater Toronto Area, a release from the Chamber of Commerce said yesterday.

The event brings together entrepreneurs from the agriculture, financial services, advanced manufacturing, information and communications technology, oil and gas, clean technology, aviation, hospitality, and the service industry sectors. It is expected to attract leading figures from the more than 85,000 Canadian-Guyanese citizens who call Canada home.

“The Gala promises to be a great business and social networking opportunity for anyone with an interest in Guyana,” said Winston Kassim, the Canadian-based Co-Chair of the Chamber.

The Canada-Guyana Chamber of Commerce is a non-partisan entity and was established in 2020 to strengthen trade and investment opportunities between Canada and Guyana. The Chamber is chaired by Anand Beharry (Guyana), with Winston Kassim (Canada) serving as Co-Chair.
