The Canada Guyana Chamber of Commerce (CGCC) has launched the inaugural “Energy Link Up” Conference slated for June 21 and 22, 2024 at the National Cultural Centre.

At the launch held in the boardroom of the Guyana Manufacturing and Services Association Limited (GMSA) Dr Surendra Persaud, a CGCC board director, said that many business conferences held locally had limitations for attendees due to issues such as seating accommodations/capacity or entry fees that may be too expensive for the average citizen.

The event, which comprises an expo and conference-styled forum, is aimed at attracting “the working class or the average Guyanese” who may be interested in learning the dynamics of the energy sector and its prospects, he told reporters at the launch.
