The Inter Tourism Expo (iNTTA) 2026 aims to transform Ghana's tourism potential into viable investment projects to spur economic growth and generate jobs. Executive Chairman Emmanuel Treku stated that the event will facilitate networking among tourism stakeholders, investors, financial institutions, and entrepreneurs to create partnerships and investment opportunities.

The expo, themed "The 24-Hour Africa Economy, Tourism, Agribusiness, Digital Sovereignty & AfCFTA Industrial Acceleration," focuses on Ghana's heritage, culture, coastline, hospitality industry, creative industries, and natural resources as potential investment areas. Treku emphasized the importance of viewing tourism as a strategic economic sector capable of supporting the 24-hour economy, enhancing local value chains, drawing investment, and creating sustainable employment.

He called for closer collaboration among various sectors, with the private sector playing a crucial role in implementation. The main conference will be held in Cape Coast from October 21 to 23, 2026, with additional events in Greater Accra and the Savannah Region, including site visits to the Savannah Region on October 25 and 26.

The goal is to position Ghana as an investment destination and leverage tourism as a key driver of economic transformation.
