GuyExpo 2014 was officially launched last evening with a call by Minister of Tourism, Industry and Commerce Irfaan Ali for bold decision-making in the face of risks to drive major transformation in the country.
Under the theme “Transformation: Partnership for a Better Guyana,” this year’s GuyExpo features more than 400 booths and the highest participation of overseas businesses, with a total of 56 booths and in excess of 118 delegates.
Speaking on the theme, Ali said during his address at the opening at the Sophia Exhibition Complex that transformation must be “bold” and “risk averse.”
“Transformation itself requires critical thinking; we cannot be static and be a part of a transformational process.
