CWG Ghana celebrates 20 years of technological excellence in Africa; Pioneering innovations for national development

Pan-African Technology Solutions Provider, CWG Ghana is celebrating 20 years of promoting and providing innovative solutions to technology challenges and opportunities for the development of the nation.

The launch is the first in a series of events to commemorate the company’s 20-year anniversary of doing business in Ghana.

CWG Ghana has embarked on an unprecedented path of contribution to the Information, Communication, and Technology Sector over the last two decades, and has consistently remained a benchmark for excellence in Africa.

For the past two decades, the organization has steadily pursued its vision and mission while making an impact in Ghana and Africa’s digital ecosystems.

The Chairman and Founder of CWG Ghana, Austin Kwesi Okyere spoke about his decision to implement and develop a technological framework to enable development in the country.

“I am usually asked what informed the strategic decision to set up CWG Ghana in 2003, Did being a Ghanaian citizen influence my decision? Being a citizen definitely played a big role in that decision, but beyond that was the bigger picture of the immense opportunity we saw to replicate a proven strategy of service excellence and customer intimacy in a rapidly growing market.

“Ghana had discovered the jubilee oilfield and had become the headquarters of the African Continental Free Trade Area. Moreso, our anchor customer MTN, with whom we were doing a global annual revenue of $35m had selected Ghana as her West African hub. It made a lot of sense to follow the path of our biggest customer by establishing CWG Ghana as our West Africa hub as well,” he said.

According to Mr. Austin, the idea of technology has changed the game and helped reduce the burdens of businesses.

“We have changed the game for service delivery to our customers in telecoms, banking and Oil & Gas and Government in Ghana by shouldering their technology burden so that they can focus on their core business and they have rewarded us with their loyalty, making CWG Ghana one of the biggest contributors to our global revenues.

He continued; “And this has been sustained over the 20 years through quality global partnerships with global giants such as Infosys, Dell and Microsoft as well as locally developed Platforms that offer products and services on a subscription basis.

“We have also collaborated with local companies to deploy best in class solutions that have enabled Ghanaian enterprises to flourish, foster innovation, and enhance their competitiveness,” he added.
