BIG IDEAS NEED CAPITAL. GREAT BUSINESSES NEED RESILIENCE. STRONG ECONOMIES NEED BOLD LEADERSHIP.

What happens when finance, entrepreneurship, leadership and real-world business experience meet at the same table?

That is one of the conversations we are bringing to the 3rd Conference on Economic Growth, and we are thrilled to welcome Mr. Joe Jackson, CEO of Dalex Finance, as one of the distinguished business leaders gracing this global gathering.

3RD CONFERENCE ON ECONOMIC GROWTH

THEME: “The Impact of Tariffs on Entrepreneurship in Turbulent Times”

Entrepreneurship does not happen in a vacuum.
Behind every growing enterprise is a story of risk, financing, difficult decisions, resilience, leadership and opportunity.

And when economies become turbulent when tariffs rise, markets shift, costs increase and uncertainty deepens, the difference between merely surviving and genuinely thriving often comes down to the quality of decisions leaders make.

This is why the presence of Mr. Joe Jackson matters.

As CEO of Dalex Finance, he brings something invaluable to this conference: the voice of business practice.
Not simply theories about entrepreneurship.
Not simply models of economic growth.

But the perspective of leadership from within the financial and business environment where economic decisions have real consequences for entrepreneurs, employees, families and communities.

Join Mr. Joe Jackson and our exceptional international community at the 3rd Conference on Economic Growth.

ENTREPRENEURSHIP MUST GROW ,BUT CAN IT GROW SUSTAINABLY?

As businesses navigate tariffs, economic uncertainty and rapidly changing global markets, another question deserves equal attention: How do we pursue economic growth without compromising our environmental and social responsibilities?

We are delighted to spotlight Dr. Enoch Opare Mintah, PGG, Sustainability and ESG Consultant at Leaps and Heights Services Limited, UK, as one of the distinguished professionals joining the 3rd Conference on Economic Growth, organised by the City Institute of Higher Learning (C-IHL).

THEME: “The Impact of Tariffs on Entrepreneurship in Turbulent Times”

Today’s entrepreneurs are being challenged on multiple fronts. They must remain competitive, innovative and financially resilient, while responding to growing expectations around sustainability, ESG, responsible business and long-term societal impact.

This makes Dr. Opare Mintah’s participation particularly timely.

His expertise in sustainability and ESG adds an important dimension to our global conversation: economic resilience should not simply be about surviving turbulence it should also be about building businesses and economies capable of creating enduring value.

GROWTH. RESPONSIBILITY. RESILIENCE.
The businesses of tomorrow will increasingly be judged not only by how much value they create, but also by how responsibly they create it.

That means bringing entrepreneurship, sustainability and economic development into the same conversation.

“How do we grow responsibly, resiliently and sustainably?”

Join Dr. Enoch Opare Mintah and our distinguished international community at the 3rd Conference on Economic Growth.

A VOICE FOR WELLBEING, A CHAMPION FOR THRIVING BUSINESSES AND A SPEAKER YOU DO NOT WANT TO MISS!

We are delighted to announce Prof Maria Kordowicz, Professor of Psychology at Regent’s University London, as one of the wonderful speakers gracing the 3rd Conference on Economic Growth, organised by the City Institute of Higher Learning (C-IHL).

Professor Maria Kordowicz will explore a powerful and often overlooked dimension of economic growth:

“Business Owner Wellbeing – The Cornerstone of Economic Thriving”
In a world of tariffs, trade disruptions, economic uncertainty and unprecedented pressures on entrepreneurs, we must remember one fundamental truth:

Businesses cannot truly thrive if the people leading them are not thriving.
The wellbeing of entrepreneurs and business owners matters not only for individuals and families, but also for business resilience, productivity, innovation, decision-making and sustainable economic growth.

BEYOND AID. TOWARDS EQUITY. TOWARDS PARTNERSHIP. TOWARDS SHARED PROGRESS.

What should the future of Canada–Africa research collaboration look like?

We are honoured to welcome Sir Dennis Dominic Adjei JSC, Supreme Court Judge, Ghana, as one of the distinguished speakers at the 3rd Conference on Economic Growth, organised by the City Institute of Higher Learning (C-IHL).

“Beyond Aid: Building Equitable Research Partnerships Between Canada and Africa”

FROM ASSISTANCE TO AUTHENTIC PARTNERSHIP
For decades, conversations about Africa's development have often been framed around aid. But the future demands something deeper: equity, reciprocity, shared knowledge, institutional trust and genuine partnership.

How can Canadian and African institutions build research relationships in which both sides shape the agenda, contribute knowledge, strengthen capacity and share the benefits?

How do we move from relationships based primarily on assistance towards collaborations founded on mutual respect, co-creation and shared impact?
These are timely questions and Sir Dennis Dominic Adjei brings an important perspective to this conversation.

His presentation adds another dimension to a conference that is deliberately bringing together voices from academia, law, entrepreneurship, policy, business and institutional leadership to confront the complex realities shaping our economies.

Beyond aid lies partnership. Beyond partnership lies the possibility of building something enduring together.

Join Sir Dennis Dominic Adjei JSC and our international community for what promises to be a thought-provoking and consequential conversation.

The conversation continues at the 3rd Conference on Economic Growth, and we are delighted to spotlight Dr. Maxwell Acheampong, President of ADR-SRI (Ghana) and Lecturer at the University of Winneba, Ghana, as one of the distinguished personalities joining this important international gathering.

THEME: “The Impact of Tariffs on Entrepreneurship in Turbulent Times”

We are living through a period in which tariffs, trade tensions, geopolitical uncertainty, supply-chain disruptions and changing economic policies are redefining the environment in which entrepreneurs operate.

For SMEs in particular, these are not simply issues discussed in economic textbooks. They affect costs, markets, investment decisions, competitiveness, partnerships and ultimately survival and growth.

This is why voices such as that of Dr. Maxwell Acheampong are important to the conversation.

His participation adds to the rich combination of academic insight, professional experience and policy-oriented thinking that will characterise this year's conference.

ONE CONFERENCE. MANY PERSPECTIVES. A GLOBAL CONVERSATION.
From Atlantic Canada to Ghana and beyond, we are creating a platform where academics, entrepreneurs, policymakers, researchers, professionals and emerging scholars can meet, exchange ideas and develop relationships that may extend well beyond these two days.

EVERYONE IS INVITED!

Join Dr. Maxwell Acheampong and our distinguished international speakers for two days of knowledge, dialogue and connection.
We look forward to welcoming you!

THEME: “The Impact of Tariffs on Entrepreneurship in Turbulent Times”

As businesses and entrepreneurs navigate an increasingly complex global environment shaped by tariffs, shifting trade policies, geopolitical uncertainty, technological change and economic pressures, there has never been a more important time to bring together diverse perspectives and expertise.

Prof. Appiah-Kubi joins an impressive international gathering of academics, entrepreneurs, researchers, policymakers, legal professionals and industry leaders for two days of meaningful dialogue, knowledge exchange and networking.

At the City Institute of Higher Learning, we believe that conferences should go beyond presentations. They should create connections, challenge conventional thinking, inspire new research, and generate ideas capable of making a real-world difference.

OUR INVITATION IS OPEN TO ALL!

Whether you are a student, researcher, professor, entrepreneur, SME owner, policymaker, business executive, public-sector professional or simply someone passionate about economic development, we warmly invite you to join us.

The challenges facing entrepreneurs today transcend national borders—and so must the conversations seeking solutions.

Two days. Global perspectives. Exceptional speakers. Powerful conversations. New connections.

Everyone is welcome. Share this invitation with your colleagues, students, professional networks, entrepreneurs and friends.

We look forward to welcoming you!

HER PRESENTATION
“SMALL FIRMS, BIG RESILIENCE: Placed-Based, Network-Driven Growth Lesson from Malaysian SMEs for Atlantic Canada”

Small firms may be small in size, but their contribution to innovation, employment, community development and economic resilience can be enormous.

Drawing on the experience of Malaysian SMEs, Associate Professor Tehseen will bring a valuable international perspective to the question of how place, networks, relationships and entrepreneurial ecosystems can help smaller businesses remain resilient and pursue growth even in turbulent economic environments.

This is precisely what the 3rd Conference on Economic Growth is about: bringing knowledge from different parts of the world into one space and asking how those experiences can help us think differently, collaborate better and build stronger economies.

THIS INVITATION IS FOR EVERYONE.
If you are an entrepreneur, SME owner, student, researcher, academic, policymaker, business executive, public-sector professional, development practitioner or simply someone interested in the future of entrepreneurship and economic growth we would be delighted to have you with us.

Join Associate Professor Shehnaz Tehseen and our international community for a conversation worth having.

Come for the ideas. Stay for the connections. Leave with new possibilities.
We look forward to welcoming you!
