The Forty Under 40 Ghana Awards is an annual program that recognizes professionals, entrepreneurs, and business leaders under 40 who are making a positive impact in their fields, including banking, finance, energy, agriculture, technology, fashion, media, and social enterprise.
Richard Abbey Jnr, founder of the Forty Under 40 Awards, described the 10-year journey as a significant milestone for the initiative, which provides a platform for identifying and celebrating young talents while encouraging their leadership and entrepreneurial potential. The awards have expanded beyond Ghana, with Forty Under 40 Africa and Forty Under 40 Global programs operating in countries like South Africa, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
With over 600 alumni, 200 winners, and having spotlighted more than 2,000 nominees, the initiative seeks ISO certification within the next decade and is exploring a franchise model for international expansion. Board Chairman Prof David Atta-Peters urged award recipients to continue demonstrating leadership and innovation in their respective fields, while also encouraging young people to pursue entrepreneurship and tackle national development challenges.
KAB-FAM Ghana Ltd CEO Charles Antwi-Boahen emphasized the importance of technology and innovation, as businesses must adapt to evolving market conditions, particularly with the growing influence of Artificial Intelligence (AI).
