EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Western Ghana Business Merit Awards scheme is an innovative new awards initiative run by The Business Executive Media Group. Under this unique awards scheme formal appreciation and recognition will be conferred on corporate entities in both the private and public sectors, active in the western part of Ghana - delineated as the Western, Western North and Central Regions of Ghana - as well as individual entrepreneurs and corporate executives that have exhibited exemplary performance and/or conduct in various aspects of their activities.
While the TBE Media Group organizes various nationally and internationally acclaimed awards schemes for business enterprises and institutions, both private and public, there is inevitably a tendency for such formal recognition to be skewed towards national capital cities. This is the general trend we have observed across Africa and Ghana is no exception.
ELIGIBILITY FOR THE AWARDS
There are six categories of potential awardees under this scheme as follows:
• Private enterprises engaged in socio-economic activity, that are domiciled and are operationally active in the Western, Western North and/or Central Regions, being on Ghana’s Register of Companies
• Public corporations/institutions engaged in socio-economic activity in any or all of the aforementioned regions, that are wholly or partly state owned;
