Ten young graduates have embarked on a career path in venture capital and private equity through the Venture Capital Analysts Programme.

According to a citinewsroom.com report, VCTF CEO, Michael Abbey, speaking during the beginning of the one-week orientation, expressed optimism about the venture capital ecosystem's potential to drive Ghana's economic development.

The ten young graduates, part of the Venture Capital Analysts Programme's third cohort, will embark on a year-long training, featuring a one-week orientation, six months of classroom instruction, and a six-month practical attachment with coaching and mentorship.

According to Michael Abbey, he hopes that the participants will become key players in major investment deals and top-notch investment analysis in the future.

“I would be very much happy if looking back many years from here, where we talk about the big investment deals in Ghana, those who are involved in structuring the deals, those who are involved in top-notch investment analysis, it would be guys from here,” he said.
