I’ve just returned from the UK where I was able to finalise the arrangements and I can tell you this event is not just a celebration of the growth and potential of Guyana’s economy but also an opportunity to grow the healthy business relationship between the two nations. Hosting the event at Lord’s, the ‘Mecca of cricket’ , reminds us of the many similarities Guyana and the UK hold close. We look forward to fostering new partnerships and exploring new avenues for collaboration across many sectors.
