Lady Dentaa Amoateng, the visionary President of the GUBA (Grow, Unite, Build Africa) Enterprise, recently completed an impactful three-day visit to Cleveland, Ohio. The visit, filled with high-profile meetings and discussions, is poised to elevate the African business community’s global presence, while also fostering significant partnerships between Ghana and the United States.
During her visit, Lady Dentaa Amoateng engaged with Cleveland’s Mayor’s Office, where discussions focused on a potential partnership between the city and GUBA. This collaboration aims to promote African businesses in Cleveland, creating an exchange of opportunities and resources that will benefit both regions. The meeting underscored GUBA’s mission of facilitating sustainable development for African businesses through global partnerships.
Key Discussions with Chamber of Commerce
In addition to her discussions with the Mayor’s office, Lady Dentaa Amoateng held strategic talks with the Cleveland Chamber of Commerce. The primary focus of these talks was exploring ways to match African businesses with local Cleveland enterprises, a move that could open new doors for investment, innovation, and collaboration. By linking entrepreneurs across continents, the partnership is expected to generate economic growth and cultural exchange, strengthening ties between the African diaspora and the U.S. business community.
Cleveland-Tema Sister City Partnership
A central element of Lady Dentaa’s visit was Cleveland’s Sister City Partnership with Tema, Ghana. This relationship, fostered by Global Cleveland, plays a crucial role in promoting cross-cultural collaboration between the two cities. The partnership continues to thrive, and with GUBA’s involvement, it is set to gain even greater traction. Plans are underway to expand initiatives that highlight business, tourism, and educational exchanges, further deepening the bond between Tema and Cleveland.
Discussions with Case Western Reserve University, Key Bank, and Huntington Bank
Further extending her influence, Lady Dentaa connected with Julian Rogers, Associate Vice President of Local Government and Community Relations at Case Western Reserve University. Their discussions centered on collaborative efforts to bridge educational and community relations between Africa and the U.S. Higher education partnerships like these are expected to play a key role in knowledge sharing and development.
Moreover, Lady Dentaa met with executives from Key Bank and Huntington Bank to discuss potential partnerships surrounding Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives. Both financial institutions expressed interest in supporting initiatives that would positively impact communities in both Africa and the U.S., especially in the areas of economic empowerment and social development.
Advancing Africa’s Global Presence
Lady Dentaa Amoateng’s visit to Cleveland reflects her steadfast commitment to promoting Africa on the global stage. These discussions and potential partnerships are expected to create a ripple effect that will bolster African businesses and elevate Africa’s role in global commerce, education, and community relations.
