MTN Ghana has entreated small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to leverage business support programmes, investment opportunities and international partnerships to expand their operations and contribute more significantly to Ghana’s economic growth.

The call was made at the 2026 MTN SMEGA Awards held at the Alisa Hotel, marking the culmination of a year-long programme focused on business development, capacity building and market access.

Stakeholders at the awards emphasized that sustained investment in capacity building, digitalisation, access to finance and international partnerships would be critical to helping Ghanaian businesses scale up, create jobs and contribute to long-term economic growth.
