Liberia’s Minister for Commerce and Industry, Magdalene Ellen Dagoseh, has touted her country as a land of immense investment potential for both regional and global investors.
She urged investors in Ghana and beyond to consider Liberia’s prospects in infrastructure, education, and economic growth.
According to her, the Liberian government is committed to youth skills development and creating a conducive business environment.
Speaking on the sidelines of the Liberia Investment Conference in Accra on Thursday, May 15, the minister noted that the country has minimal financial barriers and a welcoming regulatory framework.
“Liberia is a place of opportunity. Liberia is a place where transformation can take place at all levels,” she stated.
She added, “Liberia is a place where we believe we should have more investors in terms of infrastructure and education. More especially, we are working with technocrats to see how we can train more of our young people in various capacities—to grow our economy and strengthen our educational sector.”
The 2025 Liberia Investment Conference marks the first time the event is being held outside Monrovia.
It signals Liberia’s intent to attract broader regional and international investment attention by leveraging Ghana’s globally respected platform.
The two-day high-level forum, organised by Liberia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and its Embassy in Ghana, is bringing together investors, policymakers and entrepreneurs across West Africa to deepen economic cooperation and position Liberia as a competitive investment destination.
The conference is expected to attract key players in sectors such as agriculture, energy, maritime, transport, petroleum, telecommunications, engineering, real estate, waste management, and environmental solutions.
