Grenada introduces citizenship by invitation initiative to foster economic growth and strategic development
The Investment Migration Agency of Grenada (IMA) has introduced the Citizenship by Invitation Initiative, a selective programme designed to attract high-calibre global leaders who can contribute to Grenada’s economic growth, innovation, and global partnerships.
Developed with Arton Capital and Forbes Global Talent, the initiative invites strategic investors in key sectors such as technology, renewable energy, and infrastructure, ensuring Grenada’s CBI programme remains competitive while maintaining the highest due diligence standards.
“This is about more than investment—it’s about partnership and progress,” said IMA CEO Thomas Anthony, emphasising the focus on sustainable growth. Armand Arton, CEO of Arton Capital, noted the programme’s efficiency compared to global counterparts. By attracting top business leaders, the initiative supports local entrepreneurs, fosters knowledge transfer, and strengthens Grenada’s international ties, securing long-term benefits for the nation.

Grenada Independence Day
Independence Day in Grenada is a vibrant national holiday celebrated with patriotic events, including parades, cultural performances, and flag-raising ceremonies. Citizens proudly wear red, gold, and green—the colours of the national flag—while schools and communities organise special programmes reflecting on the nation’s history, achievements, and cultural heritage.
Shops, schools, and banks close for the occasion, and the festivities attract both locals and tourists, who join in the celebrations. People dress up, visit loved ones, and commemorate the nation’s struggle for freedom. However, if the holiday falls on a weekend, the following Monday is not observed as a public holiday. Beyond the celebrations, the day serves as an opportunity to honour Grenada’s journey to independence, recognising its resilience, unity, and cultural identity as a nation.
