GuyExpo 2023 has returned after a seven-year hiatus and will be providing opportunities to businesses in Guyana.
The Department of Public Information (DPI) said that the expo was declared open by Prime Minister, Mark Phillips last evening at the Sophia Exhibition Centre.
According to him, the exhibition is also a celebration of the transformative changes that are sweeping the country.
“After tonight’s GuyExpo has been declared open, you will all have the opportunity to visit the various booths and exhibits, you will see the evidence of an economy that has undergone a metamorphosis. Guyana’s economic trajectory isn’t just marked by rapid growth, it is characterised by a transformation, a paradigm shift is occurring within our economic structure, evident in the emergence of sectors that were not traditionally the mainstays of our economy,” the prime minister stated.
Phillips, who is performing the functions of President said the event mirrors the changing features of the country’s economic landscape and serves a reflection of the forward-thinking spirit, which is propelling Guyana into an exciting future.
“GuyExpo is just not a reflection of where we are but a glimpse into where we are headed. Our economic trajectory is not merely about growth, but also it is about qualitative transformation,” the prime minister stated.
Referring to this year’s theme for the exhibition – “Transforming Guyana Through, Investment, Innovation and Resilience”, Phillips said it resonates with the path of transformation envisioned for the country by the PPP/C Administration.
According to PM Phillips, GuyExpo 2023 heralds a new wave of economic opportunities for the country’s private sector.
Phillips congratulated the Minister of Tourism, Industry and Commerce, Oneidge Walrond and her team for organising the return of the much-anticipated exposition.
GuyExpo is a partnership among the Ministry of Tourism, Industry and Commerce, G- Invest and the private sector.
