IGS 2025: St. Kitts and Nevis sets the global standard for sustainable investment and innovation

The second edition of the Investment Gateway Summit (IGS) 2025 in St. Kitts and Nevis has concluded with resounding success, reaffirming the nation’s bold vision to become the world’s first sustainable island state.

Under the theme “Investment to Impact: Our Journey to a Sustainable Island State,” the event brought together regional leaders, global investors, economic citizens, and other stakeholders to explore responsible investment, enhanced due diligence, digital innovation, and global partnerships.

In his keynote address, Prime Minister Hon. Dr Terrance Drew emphasised that St. Kitts and Nevis remains a trailblazer in the global Citizenship by Investment (CBI) landscape, framing investment as a collaborative tool for national transformation.

Delegates had the opportunity to tour major developments funded through the CBI program, which have played a crucial role in expanding tourism and infrastructure on both islands. IGS 2025 served as a platform to spotlight the country’s diversified investment strategies in renewable energy, digital services, and agriculture, central to achieving the government’s sustainability goals.

India, Ghana ink key pacts during PM Modi’s visit, aim to double trade in 5 years

India and Ghana have elevated their relationship to a comprehensive partnership during Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s historic visit to the West African nation – the first such visit by an Indian Prime Minister in 30 years.

During his meeting with Ghanaian President John Dramani Mahama, PM Modi reaffirmed India’s commitment to acting as a “co-traveller” in Ghana’s development journey. The two leaders agreed to double trade between their countries over the next five years, strengthen defence ties, and enhance cooperation in areas such as digital payments, healthcare, culture, and critical minerals.

The visit saw the signing of four key Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs), covering cultural exchange, product standards and certification, traditional medicine, and the establishment of a Joint Commission for high-level talks.

The leaders also discussed global and regional challenges, including terrorism, and agreed to strengthen cooperation in the fight against this common threat. India pledged to support Ghana through defence training programs and equipment, as well as assistance in boosting the country’s agriculture sector and ambitions to become a regional vaccine production hub.

PM Modi was also conferred with ‘The Officer of the Order of the Star of Ghana’, the country’s national honour, in recognition of his “distinguished statesmanship and influential global leadership.”
