Having announced recently that its Third Business Development Forum was due to commence today, Friday, November 11, the Georgetown Chamber of Commerce and Industry President, Timothy Tucker, declared that of late, the Chamber has been focussed on access to capital and the securing of (presumably lucrative) joint venture partnerships, altogether sound and legitimate preoccupations that are a corollary to the wider mission of it taking advantage of the entrepreneurial openings that have been created by the opportunities that have been opened up in a Guyana economy that is in a condition of accelerated transformation and ensuring that its members benefit from those opportunities.
Contextually, the circumstances make the Chamber’s current Business Development Forum and its outcomes highly anticipated at home, in the region, and further afield since the posture of the Chamber will help shape the country’s investment profile not just among local businesses, but among regional and extra-regional ‘players’ who, even now, continue to seek their own helpings of Guyana’s investment pie.
