Join us for two hours and hear public and private sector leaders from Guyana and the Diaspora discuss Guyana’s future and its intersection with the oil and gas industry in Guyana. We anticipate that tens of billions of U.S. dollars will find their way to Guyana over the next two decades because of these growing industries.
Find out how this could affect the country’s economy, the prosperity of people in Guyana, and the lives of the hundreds of thousands of Guyanese around the world.
Two panels will discuss:
- Pathways to Economic Prosperity in Guyana: An Oil and Gas Perspective
- Oil, the New Frontier for Guyana
Have your questions answered by The Guyanese Business Journal & Magazine (GBJ), The Guyanese American Chamber of Commerce (GACC), and The Caribbean Policy Consortium.
